It is all kinds of shady. The policy says that if material changes are made to the policy, special notice, including sending notifications, will be made. As I noted, even the policy change announcement does not include a mention of this material change. Why is this feature being prioritized and snuck in, while the most significant announcement from their last raise (that users will receive 10% of the raise) seems to have been all but forgotten? It really puts this interview with Steve in some context: this video
His offhand remark about knowing people's interests showed a real lack of judgement as well (even if he was 100% not serious the reaction from the interviewer is telling): [LINK] Link to relevant video section: this video
Reminds me of this: this video "We know all of your interests. Not just your interests you are willing to declare publicly on Facebook – we know your dark secrets, we know everything… (laughs)"
Eh. Not exactly the personality fit for running a comminity site such as reddit: this video Pretty obnoxious person to be honest.
