I hope they lose this case badly.
For the concerns I have about AI and stealing others work, I want to see Reddit burn for pretending that they are all about community and connection, while actively harming their users’ experience on the platform and attempting to profit off their content.
Yeah, something about a company making billions of dollars off completely user generated content and moderation just runs me the wrong way. As much as I hate Facebook, they at least pay people to do moderation there, and regularly update their site (as shitty as it is). I dont use either anymore, and I hope they die in a pit of flames owing billions to their shareholders.
No matter who wins, everyone loses.
Only 100,000 times? Shit, do I need to be worried about getting sued too?

Long story short: They are not combatting bots on their platform. They sold training data to google and these guys aren’t paying, that’s why they’re suing.
“We’re the front page of the Internet!”
“No, not like that…”
“We’re the front page of the Internet! …as long as the front page isn’t scraped…” >:(
I hope they both choke on their own bots.
Edit: I guess great minds think alike.
Bots? On Reddit!?
It’s more likely than you think!
Oof owie my hemochromatosis.

Aren’t the copyrights still belonging to the original authors? What is Reddit suing for? The header and the footer? 🤔
