Anyone still posting on reddit (who isn't a bot) is working for free for an unscrupulous company.

Reddit was founded during the "crowdsourcing" craze. People realized that they could launch websites where all the content was created by the users, and it would snowball into daily views.

My point is that posting and commenting on Reddit has always been doing free work for an unscrupulous company. You could argue that it wasn't unscrupulous before it went public, but even that is debatable.
