    turn the platform’s more than 22 billion posts and comments “into structured intelligence for smarter marketing decisions”

    Bwahahahahahaha fuck you

  • Those redditors will be squeezed for all their worth, everything they read will be a targeted ad.

    Each user will be put into their own ai-ad bubble for maximum pressure.

    Intentionally blurring the line between ads and user posts. Same stuff as always.

    99% of the time I look at reddit, if at all, with a PC. You can clearly see posts that are marked “promoted”. I have never clicked on any of them and don’t understand why anyone would.

      A good portion of posts are unlabeled organic advertisements masquerading as normal content. Reddit probably doesn’t make money off of those directly, but they are amazing for the advertisers posting them.

    Would the cofounder of reddit,who died, would he have tolerated what reddit is turning into?

    Don’t know much about him but to me it sounds like he would hate what reddit has become

      Aaron Swartz, yeah probably.

      Also, who knows, money seems to have a corrupting effect on some…
