“It has been a real pain in the ass to block these companies.” makes me regret ever using Reddit in my life. Get your profit whatever, but this is just beyond greed.

I deleted my account but that was before I learnt you could replace all your posts with random sentences.

Maybe check, b/c there's a chance that they may have undeleted it all now by now, so there's a possibility that you could still do it?

You don't want random because that's easy to detect. You want to fuck up the ML so you need to be more subtle like scrambling a few words or replacing certain nouns or logical connections in ways that are hard to differentiate from regular edits.
