    I don’t like what reddit is doing with the API stuff but definitely don’t support hackers blackmailing reddit.

      Reddit’s week appears to have gone from bad to worse, as AlphV (aka BlackCat) has claimed that operators broke into Reddit’s servers on February 5, 2023, and took 80 GB of zipped data. Furthermore, Reddit has been contacted by BlackCat, once on April 13 and again on June 16, with no response and no attempt to find out what was taken.

      The hack happened before the api thing.
