    Reddit has a copy of every comment and edit, they probably have copies of things users type but don’t actually end up posting.

    It is brutally trivial to notice mass edits like this.

    The only thing this is doing is making it harder for people scraping it without paying, making what reddit is selling actually valuable.

    Every edited or deleted comment is more money in their pocket.
