RozinanteThere is no moral high ground for Reddit as it seeks to capitalise on user data | John Naughton
_number8_i saw a spez quote, one of the sickest things i've ever read, about how people are sharing things on reddit, especially in mental health / recovery spaces, "that they wouldn't even share with a therapist", and it sure is a fucking travesty that that hasn't been properly harvested and monetized
this guy should be put in a fucking padded room
567PrimeMoverThe more shit I hear come out of his mouth the more I’m disgusted that I ever used reddit. Aaron Swartz must be spinning in his grave
Unfortunately, I feel like Swartz would be spinning for a LOT of things that Web 2.0 turned out to be and propagate. We don't even blink at the idea of personal data being shared across unknown anonymous networks. It's a matter of "whatev's, they're welcome to find out what porn I like".
Like remember when that Will Smith movie "Enemy of the State" came out and although it's way over the top, it was totally on point in principle on how vulnerable we are in networks overseen by anonymous government entities and private companies.
Now we fucking applaud hundred-millionaires becoming billionaires for capitalizing on the internet stew we all threw our goods in for fun research, and internet community
BlackCoffeeWhat!? Can you link to the quote?
That's far too kind. He should be in a room with cinder block walls and a metal toilet.
Most normla CEO.
