Not a single mention of Swartz in the article. Absolute scum
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Spez was the mod of a pedo sub. He's also a white supremacist piece of dogshit.
Fuck spez.
Success doesn't ring at your door by chance. First you have to demonstrate how horrible you are and how you can contribute to make humanity worse.
The moderator of r/jailbait?
That just means he fits in with the rest of them.
Worth mentioning that at that time you could add anyone as moderator and they wouldn't even know or decline the mod rights.
he lauded Reddit as being “for humans by humans” and seemed to take a subtle dig at AI slop (the low-quality AI content clogging corners of the internet)
That's pretty funny coming from the CEO of a platform that was already overrun by low-effort bots even before AI slop became a thing...
not to mention whose recent valuations have basically been about selling their data to train models which will be used to make AI slop
The wrong founder died, unfortunately.
Died due to criminal prosecution for something Meta was able to get away with Scott-free.
God damn America.
Wait was he the guy that hosted all of those academic articles and was prosecuted for it, the killed himself?
He hooked his laptop up to school servers and was copying all the data on them.
And all he had to do was fuck over everyone who helped him get there. His co-founder and users most of all
Peak US
Fuck you /u/spez.
Redditors: "Billionaires shouldn't exist!"
Also redditors: Helps make latest billionaire...
If you wanna rise in the West, you better be evil.
RIP Aaron Schwartz. 🙏
RIP Aaron Schwartz. 🙏
Is he related to Aaron Swartz?
Edit: Peak documentary of his life (free) for those unfamiliar. 🥹
Fucking parasite. I wish him nothing but the worst.
"Thanks for all the unpaid work mods!"
Lol he'd never thank the plebeians.
Worst coming out ever.
Fuck Spez
Fuck spez.
I’m more likely to find humans on grindr than Reddit at this point.
rip aaron swartz
The previous moderator r/jailbait is now a billionaire.
idk what jailbait is. And do not want to know lol.
Just to note, at the time anyone could be made a moderator without their approval, so that alone is not demonstrating his support for that subreddit.
Allowing it to continue was his implicit support of it. He was well aware of what they were doing, and only acted when it became a PR issue.
Im convinced he killed the other cofounder, never a suicide
Convinced by what evidence?
If you expect me to be the first conspiracy theorist to provide actual evidence you are out of your mind
