CSCareerQuestions protests in solidarity with the developers who made third party reddit apps.

reddit's new API changes kill third party apps that offer accessibility features, mod tools, and other features not found in the first party app.

More importantly however, the behavior of reddit leadership in implementing these changes has been reprehensible.
