Reddit is not a social network. It’s always been a content platform. If they are trying to sell people’s information of course they’re gonna have a hard time because they don’t require your identity to be linked to your account

It seems like they're trying to go into the direction of a social network. A lot of their problems with spam and revenue could probably be solved if they required you to enter and verify your email address when you joined, but they don't do it because they know there'd be backlash.
