Welp. Feeling pretty glad that I bailed on Reddit last year :P

Why? Reddit is fighting the motion.

Any suitably large company or web platform might be subject to a legal request like this. For once, it seems like users and reddit are on the same side here.

Lemmy's only defense at the moment is obscurity, it too could face these court battles if it gained more prominence or attention.
