I hope they do. Finding irrelevant reddit threads from years ago is a constant annoyance.

This would be a huge blow. I use Google a ton to find relevant content on Reddit. It’s still a useful way to find helpful comments even after the mass exodus and deleting of old comments. This seems like it would be much more harmful.

When a company does this, they aren’t just making a business decision, they are making a decision for the people who use their platforms, who got to their platform from Google searches and who made content that other people see in Google searches. Abuse is abuse, and even in the US this should be grounds for the loss of fair use. The EFF should realize Reddit is not their friend.
