reddit has become unusable with the bots. It's really a shame to see now even universities doing it. I think in the future we will have to find a way to verify if users or posts are real. Otherwise it will end up being dystopian wasteland.
So when Meta runs studies on their users, it's not ethical, but when it comes from a University it's okay?
What about LLMs now? Is it ethical for OpenAI to run studies in ChatGPT, "for science"?

Weird title, makes it seem like this was some sort of governmental action.
