🔗 Blocking AI bots from Microsoft, others has been “pain in the a**": Reddit CEO | Ars Technica // Scharon Harding // arstechnica.com

The irony of a company that both profits off the (free) labor of other’s work, and who shut down all 3rd party API integration because of the “high costs” associated with supporting it complaining about other companies taking their “work” for free and costing them money by scraping their site (and by-passing their APIs).

Love the comment section at Ars…and 100% agree with that comment. 😆

Someone once said “hell is other people." I would like to modify that: hell is Costco on a Saturday afternoon.
