After nearly a week of mass protests on Reddit directed at its management, the company’s strategy appears to be simple: power through.

That approach was reflected Thursday in a series of media interviews conducted by Reddit CEO and co-founder Steve Huffman. In the interviews, Huffman defended the company’s initial decision to charge third parties for data access, a decision that led to the days-long protests involving voluntary blackouts of thousands of forums on the site.

Omar, a moderator of a subreddit participating in this week’s blackout, told CNN Friday that many subreddits have participated in the blackouts based on member polls that indicate strong support for the protests. “What we are seeing now is a case of the discontent speaking out where the silent majority is happy with the status quo of a blackout,” said Omar, who requested anonymity for safety reasons.
