    It is public… I have a bigger issue with reddit thinking they own it.

      According to the TOS you agree to when signing up to reddit, while they don’t outright own your content they do own a license to do pretty much anything they want with your content.

        No no. They own it up until the point it is illegal. Then, it is your content and your fault.

        What I am getting at, double standards.
