Spez is out of touch.

He’s forgotten what internet users are.

We are an entire cultural shift away from rule following and shit giving, to a movement of non-compliant Boaty McBoat Faces who will happily bring the whole system down on top of ourselves.

I doubt he really cares. this whole thing looks like "maintain a minimum viable product" until IPO.

he just wants to get paid, I cannot imagine he will care if reddit burns to the ground after the check clears.

This is exactly what I think. He doesn't care if everything goes to shit, he's not going to give in.

I don't like spez as much as the next guy but I don't think this is true, as CEO of a pre IPO start up a significant part of his compensation would be equity/equity options etc so he probably cares a bit more than after the check clears
