View submission: Announcing Online Presence Indicators
I'm not talking about opt-in vs. opt-out.
Presumably, the Reddit developers added an opt-out because they understood that some people might not want their online status broadcast publicly. But the opt-out checkbox is useless if people don't know that it exists.
And as other people have explained elsewhere in the thread, there *is* the potential for harm, such as stalking and harassment.
There's nothing here!
