This article only speaks about reddit users, how can you be privacy focused and not want to be part of a tech bro company and then use reddit?

Reddit's terrible privacy practices are what made me leave years ago. Everything you look at and do is sold to Google. Making it a browser fingerprint profiling gold mine.

People on reddit thinking they're practicing privacy are often asking questions like "I used my friend's microwave? Does the FBI have my phone number now?" They're mostly idiots.

No one on Privacy Guides is canceling, or least they're not public about it. Because of their desire for privacy.
