Very interesting article, thank you.
Unlike the SaidId app, the Reddit app also happens to be closed-source. <sarcasm>I wonder what they are hiding . . . .</sarcasm>

Yeah it's sketchy I agree. Not to mention the code for the main reddit site itself stopped being open source in 2015. They're all about the profit now.

The 'canary' that was on the front page of reddit was removed in 2014. This indicates a FISA warrant or some other secret US government action occured. Then in 2015 reddit comes out with a new more aggressive content policy or whatever it's called then it goes downhill faster than normal. Twitter files and uncommon sense dictate governmental interference plays a key role in modern reddit, and the chinese purchase of a third of reddit stock comes after all this as well. The governments and companies in the US and seemingly everywhere else love their chinese money/bribes/authoritarianism.
