I guess we all know it, since we are interested in Privacy and not clueless enough to be on Reddit (anymore?).
The degeneration from a "safe" place to what it is now is what makes it particoularly egregious a place to avoid for anybody serious about privacy...
2017 was 7 year ago, Aaron died 11 years ago. There are a lot younger users who can't remember these things.
Let's see a 20 years old university student was 13 when the source was closed down, I think it's not easy to find a 13 years old who is familiar with such legal things.
in 2017 my biggest concerns were that whether i can play PS3 with broken hand or not (i could)
No but it's much easier to find the 20 years old student interested in privacy that realyze right now that reddit is not open source...
