Bro got jealous of China and “The Great Wall of Text”
Well, they could just say: “We made a script to track every mod who closed their sub, revogate its mod permissions and notify all other mods in the sub with an automatic message”, which basically frees them from any charges regarding community content.
They could, however, be sued for not actively removing illegal content, such as pirated things and MAP related things (e.g. r/jailbait)
Isn’t Reddit GDPR copliant? Because if they are, they can’t simply undelete things without users’ permission
The Fediverse is almost unpoisonable by these people, since we can just open another instance and block interactions with those we don’t like.
LMAO, what? Protests ain’t fun at all and aren’t meant to be. Here in my country, it’s pretty common to see public school teachers doing protests and strikes demanding better salaries, then get shot by cops using rubber bullets or get some pepper spray in the face. I don’t think they protest because getting shot is “funny”, they do because they want a real change for everyone.
Also, the protesters ARE (or at the very least should be) aware of the risks and downsides. If the people you work with decided to make a strike because of something they don’t like or agree with in your workplace, they are at least aware they may be replaced by scabs or get fired. Likewise, the mods and users who embraced the protest were aware the community content would be inaccessible and they’d have to find other things to do aside doomscrolling all day.
So no excuses here, people got into this because they really want some changes, and those who didn’t either: are Reddit bootlickers; aren’t aware of the real impact the API changes are going to make or; aren’t able to reach much people without staying on Reddit (here I talk specifically about FMHY and Piracy communities)
Just guessing, but maybe this has something to do with instances overload
Well, their ToS says these (ToS + Privacy Policy) are a legally-binding agreement. So technically, you could sue them for not deleting your posts
