Reddit is just 30 people talking to about 2 million bots. The bots are trying to accumulate enough karma so the account is valuable to advertisers. Reddit gets engagement so they don't care. Advertisers get high-clout "real people" accounts. And the techno-scavengers make a few hundred dollars or a few thousand per year.
