    The Washington Post reported Friday that Reddit might cut off Google and force users to log in to Reddit itself to read anything, if it can’t reach deals with generative AI companies to pay for its data

    Funny, they are negotiating how best to sell OUR data. Might be time to delete your account and all its comments if you haven’t already.

      Isn’t this the business model that’s as old as humanity?

      Workers make a bit of wealth with their work … Workers give wealthy rulers wealth … Wealthy rulers use that wealth to make more wealth … And everyone praises the wealthy ruler for being so smart?

      We haven’t evolved … we’re just cavemen with cat memes and nuclear weapons.

      I’ve read people here talking about how they not only deleted their accounts but used one of those account scrubbers to go through and edit all their comments and a few weeks later looked and it had been restored
