Not negotiating on 3rd-party app charges: Reddit CEO despite protest

If you hopped on Reddit to scroll through your favorite forums this week, you may have encountered private or restricted messages. That's because thousands of subreddits chose to go dark in an ongoing protest over the company's plan to start charging certain third-party developers to access the site's data. But Reddit's CEO Steve Huffman told The Associated Press he's not backing off. Protest and dissent is important, Huffman said.

Third-party developers rely on API data to create their apps, which offer access to features that are unavailable in the official Reddit app, particularly for content moderation and accessibility .
