Reddit getting paid to do fuck-all while their users generate all their content.
Actually, it's worse than that because Reddit actively makes the site shittier every month.
Don’t forget at least half the stuff on Reddit these days is posted by AI bots. Enshitification all the way down.
Hasn't that always been the way?
What's it called when you sell something you don't own?
theft?
piracy?
... scalping?
selling on margin?
You wouldn't download petabytes of information that was generated by the public for free and try to monetize it
DOWNLOADING IS PIRACY
How the turn tables
Innovative business decision?
"He who sells what isn't his'n, must buy it back or go to pris'n."
