There has been a weeklong protest over Reddit's new policy of charging third parties for the use of its data.
As part of ongoing protests over changes to Reddit's API policies, users have been overrunning the platform with photos of comedian John Oliver.
"Uncompensated contributors populate the platform's many communities with their content, just as volunteer moderators keep spam and bigotry at bay," the Pics subreddit moderator wrote."Since neither we nor Reddit would be here without you, it was only fair to let you determine what r/Pics should include... and you overwhelmingly chose to feature only images of John Oliver looking sexy.""Dear Reddit, excellent work.
