Reddit says Microsoft’s Bing, Anthropic, and Perplexity have scraped its data without permission. “It has been a real pain in the ass to block these companies.”

    I think idiots actually prefix searches with “reddit” like “reddit best toaster”.

    They don’t realise that it’s all bot content like the rest of the Web.

    That doesn’t matter though. If bing doesn’t have those results it will drive users away.
