Who are the interested buyers? I’ll mail a sample directly posthaste.
Reddit is selling their user database?
Username checks out
What a shitty thing to do
It’s also a shitty deal
Probably just log files.

I’ve heard of enshittification but this is ridiculous
I guess it doesn’t surprise me that we’re now seeing AI dataset trainers as a market for harvested user data. Using reddit as a direct marketplace just out in the open is new to me, but makes sense given the kinds of other stuff people sell on there.
Gross, but lmao at “log #”
That poop.ai domain is looking pretty solid right now! If this isnt a load of crap, they should have $70k in the tank to dump on this shit. They better watch their rear or their competitor will get the drop on them and they’ll be number two.
I mean, this is why you read the terms and conditions.
If the app was completely free, I feel that personal data tradeoff is likely worth it for a lot of these users. Especially if properly anonymized.
