Reddit didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment. According to Reddit spokesperson Tim Rathschmidt, “We’ll no longer comment on hearsay, unsubstantiated claims, or baseless accusations from The Verge. We’ll be in touch as corrections are needed.” In the absence of corrections, then, you can assume Reddit believes none are necessary.

"Attacking our users didn't work, so let's attack the journalists reporting on us attacking our users!"

So Reddit are really embracing the Elon's approach to PR, perhaps they have forgotten they haven't had their IPO yet.
