When CEO Steve Huffman announced this change in April, he indicated he wanted to stop the likes of Google and OpenAI from continuing to use Reddit data to train their A.I. The biggest issue is Reddit’s decision to charge for access to its application programming interface, or API-the tool it provides so outside services can tap into its data and provide alternative front ends to Reddit. The moderators of some subreddits, including the wildly popular r/music, r/videos, and r/iphone communities, say they will stay dark for longer. Today and tomorrow, thousands of subreddits, the individual communities that make up the whole, are “going dark” to protest against Reddit management’s decisions and perceived failures. Or rather, Reddit’s users-the service’s flesh and blood-are rising up against the company that runs the show.
