Especially since it will drive down their traffic significantly. I thought it was well-known that Reddit is the "search engine hack" to get useful results.

I guess they're betting on the big players just paying.

the reddit search engine hack is only because the search engines are so bad and all the old forums are dead. It will be interesting to see if Microsoft pays up, or the government gets involved.
