You need to remember one thing, T&C's are not worth the paper or digital space they are written in because time after time they get challenged and lose. T&C's are there to scare users into doing things and not doing things. Also, this thing about a social media company can do what ever they want with what a person posts, no they cannot. Again there are videos on youtube where people have taken Facebook and Instagram to court for using images of a persons profile and using it in commercial applications. A company may claim they can use what you post but as soon as they try to make money of what you post, nope, not going to happen. I remember watching a youtube channel of a photography couple who would post tutorial videos on youtube and post their photo's on Instagram and they notice their photo's were being used by some of Intagrams 'partners/vendors' for commercial gain. The couple would takes these companies to court and guess what, they would win because the judges would say that whilst the T&C's may grant companies a right to use a user pictures, they do not have the right to use them for monetary gain without getting permission from the owners of the work.
Go to get a meal out this weekend and when the bill comes for $50, say you only wanted to pay $30 and see what they do to you.
I don't think anyone would want to do that now. I wouldn't. Because the 'community' just proved that if they don't like something they will try and hold you hostage. That is not something you can build a business on.
I 100% will. I'm waiting for the slight hope they reverse it and Apollo stays. Like I said, the second Tweetbot was dead, my Twitter account went with it. I'll do the same exact thing with Reddit. I don't really care for Reddit much even WITH Apollo anymore, so...
No, I could see people spamming Reddit on purpose to make it unusable. People are that vindictive.
That’s why he tried backing out of it for an entire year until he realized the Delaware Court of Chancery was having none of his nonsense.
I don't think you understand how network effects work.
In that case, I strongly disagree with you -- and eltoslightfoot's post (immediately before this response) effectively illustrates why: for the folks at Reddit to enact their recently publicized mod blocking threat, they would have to find capable mods willing to step into the void for over five thousand newly "abandoned" subs. That's not a small ask, even in the best of circumstances... and if Reddit goes through with it, they'll be facing the exact opposite of "the best of circumstances", as they will have further eroded the trust that all existing mods had in them. After all, if you're one of the newly designated mods, what's to say you won't be the next person to get the boot, when you happen to disagree with some policy decision made by Reddit management?
Except he announced that he had 50k subs. And yet here we are, a leecher who earns half a million dollars a year without paying his own server costs is celebrated
On the basis of that performance, you’re a speechwriter for Boris Johnson, I’m guessing.
