Does anyone know who this person actually is? Shouldn’t we try to tell them this is happening?
How about all tech backdoors are bad and we should aim to use and make software and hardware that is ethically produced and usable without selling out your privacy and security?
Some quick points:
blocked off API access (last I checked you could get around this by paying an exorbitant fee 🙄) meaning 3rd party apps don’t work and you absolutely must use the official app which is garbage and collects all kinds of data from what I’ve heard (never used it) as well as disabling services that do stuff with reddit data from the API such as mass delete scripts users would use to get their content off reddit
fertile ground for bots and bad actors to manipulate, misinform and recruit users into alt-right and other spaces that perpetuate harm
moderation policies and practices that allow and in some cases encourage Nazi shit while blocking or restricting harm reduction, LGBTQIA+, anti-fascist, etc topics
massive astroturfing and dis/misinfo campaigns
flagging the word “Luigi” for violent content with automod and giving people warnings for upvoting content that goes against preferred narratives
And certainly more that I’m forgetting
Does anyone know how to reliably delete an entire reddit account, ideally editing over each comment as well? I did this before they closed off access to the API but upon checking months later, they had reverted all the changes so my account looks like it did before with everything visible.
Its literally right on there.
You might want to check to make sure they didnt undelete it. They did that to me

Edit: also in case you want one more:
buzzword
attempting to change the topic we are actually discussing
How exactly am I doing that by pointing out that you’re not actually arguing in good faith?
You are projecting in your accusation that I am attempting to change the topic, as you are the one who initially posted a top level comment attempting to shift the blame to politicians for convincing people to buy a car from a known Nazi’s company, which by the way is a bullshit premise in the first place for many reasons including that there are plenty of other EV manufacturers and no one forced anyone to buy a Nazi car.
Name one buzzword I’ve used pretentiously.
You’re being disingenuous, for example by equating the cybertrucks and some other Teslas being “damaged” (sure in some cases but not by slices of cheese or notes) with any and all electric cars, or by equating the negative sentiment against Tesla with negative sentiment against any EV.
I don’t know about you but I am never getting in a Tesla of any kind for any reason.

That wasn’t even the same person dude. You are totally unaware of who you’re even talking to.
Alt National Park Service comes to mind. They’re doing incredible work

It is still a good reason not to use Ecosia, however.
Sounds like a black mirror episode or something
Maybe bird flu?
PDF links are broken for me
