Reddit, a privately owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 2005 and employs approximately 2970 individuals. Its main product is social networking platforms, operating as a tier 1 media tech buyer. The platform enables users to submit, vote, and comment on content, stories, and discussions focused on diverse topics.
Reddit and major outlets recently threatened to cut off Google AI, citing a sharp decline in user traffic as Google's AI Overviews provide instant answers without users clicking through to original sources. This move on July 24, 2026, challenges the long-standing agreement where search crawlers indexed articles in return for user traffic to websites. Previously, on July 23, Reddit defended its authority to sue companies for copyright infringement on behalf of its users, though a Manhattan-based US judge expressed skepticism during nearly three hours of oral arguments against a pair of data scraping companies. Also on July 23, Wedbush Securities anticipated Reddit would report a strong second quarter on July 30, driven by faster U.S. user growth translating into advertising results and firm AI licensing deals. The firm had earlier added Reddit to its "Best Ideas List" ahead of the Q2 earnings report, citing confidence in the social media company's user growth and monetization trends.
