Comment on Reddit sues Anthropic, alleging its bots accessed Reddit more than 100,000 times since last July

I hope they lose this case badly.
For the concerns I have about AI and stealing others work, I want to see Reddit burn for pretending that they are all about community and connection, while actively harming their users’ experience on the platform and attempting to profit off their content.

Yeah, something about a company making billions of dollars off completely user generated content and moderation just runs me the wrong way. As much as I hate Facebook, they at least pay people to do moderation there, and regularly update their site (as shitty as it is). I dont use either anymore, and I hope they die in a pit of flames owing billions to their shareholders.

Shareholders of these companies are likely you or I, as they are so big they are significant parts of index funds purchased by retirement funds and the like

Maybe, I still hope the go belly up. My 401k isn’t worth supporting companies that spread deliberate disinformation. (Looking at you facebook). Hell, when the stock market took a nosedive over tarrifs, I pulled my entire 401k and put it into foreign investments to try to further the crash. Literally the only thing these dipsticks understand is money, and if they’re losing it, thats when they pay attention.

People don’t realise that around 40% of the value of the S&P 500, and over 60% of the Nasdaq 100 (i.e. QQQM) is big tech companies.

Maybe our quality of life, livelihood, and retirements should not be bound to for-profit corporations?

Facebook pays content creators too (creators.facebook.com/earn-money).
