I forget the legal term, but it's because they are commenting on something. So they're allowed to take someone else's content, add very little to it, and still host it on their channel.

There's more exceptions to it than follow it.

Well, that's definitely not true. It is an unreliable "rule" though...

The only "reddit" thing here is whining about downvotes. Everything else you've said has been fine and seems like it was well-received...

But I'm not in-charge here, so what you want!

I don't know what I expected...

I hear what you're saying, but we're not talking about a single-mother sneaking diapers out because she needs them or a Jean Valjean-type taking bread because they're hungry...

This is OCR (Organized Retail Theft) where a team of 3+ people coordinate with phones, distractions, and a driver, to quickly get as many high-dollar, shelf-stable items out of a store as possible to resell on Facebook marketplace/eBay/etc. It's typically at least $1000 per store.

If you hate large organizations, you should hate the greed of criminal rings like this, because we all absolutely pay more because of it...

EDIT: I'm just talking about what the article is referring to. I'm not saying companies don't pass the costs on to consumers, and I'm not casting moral judgement.

But there's not another vowel between the 'n' and the 'u', why would you pronounce it "AL-yoo-MINI-um"!?

It's similar to people who pronounce nuclear "nuke-yoo-lar", those extra letters just aren't in the word!

Yeah, and they also said "the API isn't going anywhere". Liars and cowards...

Some would argue the workers make the companies all their money...
