I would highly recommend that everyone run a tool like Redact over your reddit accounts. Deprive them of your user contributions if they're going to play this way.

Do those tools rely in any way on pushshift in order to work? If so, I don't know if they'll work now since Reddit cut off pushshift.io's access to the API back in early May.

I don't think so. I used it (Redact) just an hour or two ago on my account and it worked just fine. Other tools may vary.
