    I’d be surprised if that’s still what it says. They have the edit history, they could roll it back whenever.

    I guarantee with 100% certainty that that isn’t what they’re feeding into their AI, as well. You just planted a great big flagpole on all your old content that states “this account was previously run by a real live human” and probably doubled the value of the edited comments for AI training. Bots don’t have a reason to protest-edit their content.

    I approve of the attitude, but spez has got us in a vice here where any attempt to damage reddit’s data store is actually just helping them. Best thing to do at this point is to scrub them from memory and just ignore them forever. Unless you’re up for some seriously large-scale corporate sabotage, that’s the best we’ve got.
