No, they aren’t. The headline is just a giant lie. Why would anyone pretend to believe it?
Reddit was destroyed by bots years ago. So that’s nonsense. But they have two strong reasons to pull public access. First, if the public has access to the data, then companies won’t buy it for AI training. Second, if the public has access to the data, they can prove (as we already knew) that Reddit is full of bots, so there is no reason you would want to buy training data from it.
and people who buy ads on Reddit thinking it’s going to get a certain amount of views but they don’t know most of those views are bots until after they paid for the ads. Then they have to prove to Reddit they were tricked and good luck with that unless your a corporation Reddit wants to have a good relationship with.
reddit also wants GENUINE human generated content, not AI-generated posts or comments that poisons thier data, thats why the forced logins. im in another forum where the spammers, have to "make genuine’ content to evade thier spam/bot filters.

It’s both. The LLM scrapers are now relentless. They are also closing the door so they can sell the data to Google.
I thought google didn’t want renew the contract since they already scraped everything useful? That’s why reddit is panicking
Ah I didn’t realize that had ended.
Welp I’m sure there will be others trying to get into the game but none likely as lucrative.
