@ylai I got a long spiel as a “Reddit power user” inviting me to take part in the IPO. At the bottom it said, “you must be resident in the US”.
They know I’m not, but they sent the mail anyway. Not inspiring confidence there, guys.
You couldnt even opt out of the email. There was no obvious "opt-out" link present.
And I believe the company doing the IPO is also present in the EU?
Why would they have information regarding your national residency?
@SpaceNoodle Well, there's the fact that for the entire time my reddit account has been in existence I have literally not once ever connected from a US IP address.
Clearly you're using a VPN.
