Time Magazine Person of the Year (2006)

This is an accolade you will occasionally see on Redditors’ profiles. This is no idle boast; it is absolutely true[1]. That year, the magazine set out to recognize the millions of people who anonymously contribute user-generated content to wikis and other websites such as YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Wikipedia, and the multitudes of other websites featuring user contribution.

They pronounced “You were chosen in 2006 as Time magazine's Person of the Year” in their December 25, 2006 issue, with the cover featuring a reflective mirror surface. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_(Time_Person_of_the_Year[2]). I would guess you can even claim the title yourself if you so wish, but I have no idea how it works if you were born after 2006.
