Reddit Reports Surge in Copyright Takedown Notices and User Bans

Reddit, the platform dedicated to online discussions and pillar of user-generated information for more than 15 years, recently released a Transparency Report regarding the increase in subscriptions, but also notices of removals for copyright infringement.

The total of the latter had exceeded the sum of 2021 already in the first months of 2022, increasing further during the year. Reddit doesn't offer an explanation for this development, but it does point out that not all notices are blindly accepted, and as a result content may not always get removed.
