    They breached the data back in February and were waiting for the IPO… I guess this is a better use of the leverage, although there’s no chance it goes anywhere

    I didn’t even use an email address for any of my accounts, I can’t imagine giving them a credit card lol

    I think the funniest part of all of this is that the ransomware gang seemed to think it was worth their time to target Reddit in the first place. Not sure what good it does then to play the public opinion game now. Ransomware gangs are scum and I think everyone knows it by now.

    They should demand Spez step down and mods get a meaningful number of seats on the board of directors.

      Spez, yes. Mods, no. You forget what Reddits mods are.

        That one mod from antiwork that appeared on Fox News is my impression of Reddit mods

          What kind of idiot do you have to be to go on Fox News to represent a leftist point of view and not be EXTREMELY well prepared.
