“The content you submit is not public”. They’re 100% are trying to word-weasel out of gdpr Requirements
To be clear, it says they clarify what content is non-public. They aren’t saying all content is non-public.
I hope spez takes a long trip on a leaky boat.
That’s a great example of “if you’re not paying for the product, you are the product”. Reddit is transparently associating changes in the privacy policy with Reddit Pro, that calls itself a suite of tools “for businesses to also establish and grow a meaningful organic presence on Reddit” (translation: so corporations can astroturf the shit out of local communities).
Kind of.
That saying (I wouldn’t call it a “rule”) applies mostly to for-profit products and services; like, if they’re doing it for the money, and you aren’t giving them money directly, you’re doing it indirectly, and you should find how. Lemmy instances on the other hand are [mostly? all?] non-profit, it’s just a bunch of users trying to nurture communities to talk about stuff that they enjoy.
Wtf is Reddit Pro?
Reddit users will be so surprised when leopards eat their faces.
