I don’t think they care about what goes onto the canvas as much as they care about the increased traffic this brings. How many reddit refugees are going back just to vandalize /r/place? Even if that demographic is relatively small, this still drives up engagement from all demographics, and the greedy little pig boi needs those numbers for his IPO. I’m guessing he’s going with “any publicity is good publicity”.
Why would the admins expect anything different? Are they really that out of touch?
