Reddit

Reddit's User Agreement contains several provisions that are more aggressive than typical social media platforms. Most concerning is Reddit's extremely broad content license — they claim "perpetual, irrevocable" rights to use anything you post "in all media formats and channels now known or later developed anywhere in the world." This explicitly includes training AI and machine learning models on your posts and comments. Unlike platforms that allow content deletion, Reddit's license continues even after you delete your account. The company also caps its liability at just $100 or six months of fees, meaning even a massive data breach would result in minimal compensation. Reddit can terminate accounts "at any time for any or no reason" and override community moderator decisions without explanation. While some provisions like arbitration clauses and data collection for ads are industry standard, Reddit's combination of broad content rights, AI training, and minimal liability protection makes it notably more user-hostile than competitors like Twitter or Facebook.
