No way can a democratic society last under a corporatocracy which, by default, is essentially a dictatorship. And corporatocracy is exactly what Huffman is pushing.
Y’know, it’s highly hypocritical that the article mentions the reason for the API shutoff is to force users to pay for the content while redditcorp doesn’t pay for the content users generate that reddit wants those same users to pay to access.
A 'democratic organism' where puppet mods are installed because the 'democratically' supported ones won't toll the company line. Uh-huh. Sure, Steve.
Ah, the Democratic People's Republic of Reddit. I hear they really love spez there.
What do you mean? it could easily be called the Democratic website of the users of reddit
