Huffman isn’t clueless, he’s a liar. He selectively remembers thing, the man is a snake who has somehow managed to fail upwards into the position he is currently in. Even Pao was preferable, as she at least believed in what she was doing. Spez just does whatever gets him paid.
The guy literally built Reddit from scratch… He’s more than aware why there is an API, and how it has been used for years. The guy is just a douchebag and a liar that want to kill third party apps and acts like he is right from the beginning, never said or did anything wrong, because the bad people are devs, mods, and users. Why? Because he created Reddit so he can’t be wrong…
This just in CEO absolutely clueless.
If that would have been the case then why was the API not protected from public use? Why did it use API-Keys?
Omg what a dumb idiot. What is a third party app that adds functionality and usability? Certainly not a tool right?
And he didn’t know that there was this increased API usage? Did he just woke up from a coma?

Ellen Pao was thrown under the bus
Specifically she was thrown under the bus by kn0thing (Alex Ohanion).
We live in a dark world where we got stuck with Ohanian and Huffman, and not Swartz
God that hurts. 😭
