Someone said that if they paid their mods they would lose safe harbor protection and be liable for content that was posted. If that’s true makes sense why they can’t pay them. But that still doens’t justify the insane API increase.
Yeah fair enough, though that’s in essence the point. The hypocrisy is that they want the protection of, and only pay for, the role of being a dumb platform, but want to be “fairly paid” as if it’s their content (the actually valuable thing here) being delivered through the API.
