Then don’t vote? Nobody is forcing you to interact with the content and it’s kind of hilarious you’d consider it a security/privacy violation.

And then you put the cherry on top by saying “reddit is safe.”

You can see the number of votes here too. Why does your hand need to be held? It’s the fucking internet, guy.

Why would it need to be made clear? Likes on Facebook are public, nowhere does it say “liking this photo will alert every friend you have that you just liked your stepdaughters’ friends’ bikini pic from 2 years ago.”

I like the public vote system. Anonymous systems have a much greater potential for abuse.

Accounts are easy enough to make that you can just burn your account every few months if you’re that worried.
