Except that what Reddit is really doing is selling content they didn't produce and don't own. I don't think they're walking some kind of high road here like they would be if they were actually fighting against the scraping.

That being said I can still take some satisfaction in seeing AI scapers get jammed up considering how they face zero consequences right now.
