          You’re super paranoid, and hyper-focused on it, to the point of making it into a vast conspiracy theory (… about air purifiers?) with you at its nexus. I don’t think I would characterize that as “great mental health.”

                  That’s not how this works. People who make claims are the ones who need to provide evidence.

                  You are making a claim. This claim centers on your being harassed by very many different reddit accounts. This, in itself, may be true, though not necessarily for the reasons you believe. This basic claim, standing all by itself, is not extraordinary. People harass other people online, and it’s not out of the question that random internet trolls would pile on harassing someone who is making themselves an easy target.

                  You extend this claim by explaining that some guy who invented something on the iPhone in 2007(?) is himself making all of these accounts only to harass you. I do not believe this. This extension is extraordinary, and so requires an appropriate level of supporting evidence.

                  You could so very easily be completely done with whatever harassment the u/mustardman account receives (no matter the source) by simply abandoning that account. You haven’t. Not only that, but the account you’re using here is named exactly the same. You are actively putting yourself into a position of “fighting a just and noble fight against the scoundrel who unjustly attacks you.” You are writing a story for yourself where you are the protagonist hero (who has connections to the FBI … ?), and someone notable is the antagonist villain.

                  The solution here is for you to walk away, and not care about any of this. If you can - and do - do that, then you’re fine. If not (and I predict you will have many explanations for why not), then this is a you problem.
