You've got a point. Even a poorly implemented change to member policy seems conspiratorial. We know we're being pimped, we just don't like being reminded.

Browser side private mode in any browser can't keep your identity secret. Not a chance. It simply keeps your wife from knowing you watch gay monkey porn.
It's a device side-only privacy feature.
It's more a "faith based" privacy system until the missus steps on a "banana peel".
Yeah, man, Google says they are just being transparent.... but I can see right through them!

A fancy 3 eyed iPhone or Android gets even better results for amateurs than a full frame Nikon or Canon (for the money). The Apple/Google/Samsung "special sauce" software with 3 eye HDR multiple exposure on the fly simply does a better job than one frame exposure. Frankly, after the complex mechanics of DSLR manufacture are no longer on demand, I'm astonished at how much they continue to charge for these new mirror-less full framed point and shoot status symbols. Particularly since the just can't beat the spectacular results of high end cell phones, particularly in the hands of ordinary people. Its a camera, online backup and publish and distribution with correct metadata and perfect exposure and image stabilization in terrible uneven lighting situation. For most people, the overpriced camera habit is no longer necessary unless you just like high end toys and stuff to buy with all of that extra cash you have lying around. A $1200 iPhone ain't cheap but the camera rigs are 10x the price. Less cost than a car but more than a vacation.
There is so much wrong here I don't know where to start. I keep alternating between laughing and screaming.

The good old "How do you like them Apples?" push back on bureaucratic legislation and overwrought courts. They can afford the high cost of legal justice and fairness.
. Okay, okay, I was just kidding with that last sentence.
phew!... I'm glad the grits, clusters, and neck beard supplies on still on the table.
So, that would mean Reddit spent approximately $895 Million last year.
On what?
On really good bad publicity, apparently.
I guess its yet another ironic example of "There is NO such thing as "bad publicity" in the "free press".
The English have many words for drunks for the same reason the Inuit have many words for snow.
You might mean Yellow Snow

The above appendix cites four reputable sources, but it neglects to add the most important disreputable source: The Urban Dictionary.
The Urban Dictionary will bludgeon the cutting edge of the Dirty Sanchez, Blumpkins, and getting pissed (off and on) etymologies.
Here East of Eden in John Steinbeck Country I have seen great strides in Agriculture, particularly in water conservation, pesticides and fertilizer reductions, process automation, refrigeration, storage, distribution, sanitation, data metrics, product safety while reducing spoilage. Its clear technology increase yield in the Salinas Valley, the salad bowl of America. The farm laborers remain the most important resource, as always, and I hope they will benefit from the specialized training in this brave new technology sector. I think that science is good for humanity, namely everyone involved in eating food, but its up to the people who implement the science, commerce, and laws that govern our civility, ethics and compassion. Human nature matters the most, in my opinion. If we can avoid the intellectual, proprietary warfare that costs everyone in society, not just power brokers. We are all stakeholders on this Ship of Fools and I hope then we can cooperate, innovate, and share prosperity, sustainably, and all come out ahead. If people conduct themselves with fairness, honesty, and consideration of the mutual benefit of feeding humanity then we'll benefit. It is entirely up to us not to behave like our dysfunctional, quaint, 18th century government that seems to be struggling with scaling up to modern population. I believe that we should behave like Steinbeck protagonists: Doc Rickets and mother nature, and our neighbors as best that we can, but I think John Steinbeck really understood how that depends on how we behave, not what we posses, in this life of mice and men
