Someone should send this to relevant investors and DMCA authority, I’m sure they’ll love it
I’m not a frequent visitor of that subreddit so I’m not really informed about this, but isn’t this kind of like cutting off your nose to spite your face? I get where you’re coming from, but there’s a few outcomes here, none of which are conducive to the longevity of communities like this:
Obviously companies can DMCA for whatever reason they want, but the entire idea of communities like this is to stay under the radar.
Maybe I’m completely off-base with what I’m saying; this was just a thought I was tossing around in my head while I was trying to sleep shortly after reading this comment. It just doesn’t seem terribly productive. The only part that could be somewhat impactful would be if the relevant investors became aware, but the fact of the matter is that reddit will bend ass-backwards for these people, and if they were to take issue with that subreddit, then it’s gone.
Completely agree. I'd rather have these communities fly under the radar than get unwanted attention.
