Eh. Reddit's userbase is increasingly younger (have you seen the home page while logged out lately?) and they can't really monetize them. Sure, they have contracts with pizza and soda companies in the US, but that's it.
Recently they've been trying to "Facebook-ize" their UX, they gather a lot more data, implement affiliate links and a lot more logging, but it's still not going far because the last of their adult users are leaving the site. At least this was my experience with Reddit in the past 2 years or so.
I only go back to look for very specific things and leave afterwards.
A lot has changed. Now a team of security experts hired by governments or large organizations write their viruses to look like they originated from someone else when the victims disassemble them and look for clues.
