    I may be wrong here, but what I mean is they have ways to stop LLM companies from web scraping all of Reddit. The only other way the likes of chatGPT can get all the info is through to API which is currently free. So I think Reddit might be doing is saying this information isn’t free so pay X amount for access to our data.

    Obviously 3rd party apps like Apollo won’t pay that, but Google and OpenAi probably will.

    I’m not too sure what you mean by api data being worth less or more, it’s all the same data.
