@dismalnow Maybe I should try that before I delete my Reddit account...at least the taint part. A parting gift to F u/spez. I think you proved my point. There a lot of people that read the revised terms of use and privacy policy when those came out and have an appreciation of the ramifications, but I suspect that a sizable percentage of Redditors do not. So as we are both no doubt are aware there are data-brokers that will piece together information in what we used to call a "mosaic approach" to create a profile - which is in part the cause for my concern.
