CEO of Reddit Steve Huffman has gone and pissed off the internet by telling users of his website that they know 'all of their dark secrets'.

Speaking at the TNW Conference in Amsterdam, the 32-year-old CEO said that Reddit "knows all your interests - not just the ones you're willing to declare publicly on Facebook." The YouTube video has 1,147 dislikes compared to 209 likes - offering a clear picture of how poorly Huffman's remarks have been received. Reddit users are also sceptical of Huffman's honesty, theorising that Huffman is only trying to appeal to company's seeking ad-space. One extremely popular response read: "Then why the fuck did you show me a quilting ad repeatedly for two fucking months." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PCnZqrJE24 Clip via 703rip0eri.
