    Third party apps were only the tip of the iceberg. The bigger issue is the increasing monetization of data and recommendations across the site. This whole thing is ultimately about who will shape the internet: users or corporations. That’s why it’s silly for people to pretend there’s a neutral opinion

      What can I say? I obviously agree or else I wouldn’t be here but vilifying or antagonizing people for not caring enough about this seems silly. The reddit protest is definitely not of such upmost moral importance that there’s any kind of moral obligation for every redditor to join it. I’m sure that there are thousands of relevant issues out there where I have chosen to stay ignorant and neutral because I just can’t fight every struggle at once.
