The reddit Steve method again.

Frankly, the solution here isn’t vandalism, it’s setting up a competing side and copying the content over. The license of stackoverflow makes that explicitly legal. Anything else is just playing around and hoping that a company acts against its own interests, which has rarely ever worked before.

I mean, they could just do what reddit does and restore from backup automatically lol

Were they trying to protect ChatGPT from all the bad and convoluted answers?
