Don't Train On Me

Can you opt out of AI training on Reddit?

Every public post and comment, licensed in bulk to AI companies.

Short answer: no. Here is what is actually true, and what you can do instead.

There is no opt-out

Reddit licenses its public corpus in bulk. There is no user-level setting, and there is no form. This entry exists so the user is told the truth instead of being sent to a settings page that will not help.

What you can actually do

- Deleting a comment removes it going forward. It does not recall data already licensed, and third-party archives keep copies regardless. - Reddit's Data Request settings control advertising personalisation, not AI licensing. Do not present them as an opt-out. - The only real lever is what you post from here on.

UI rule

Show this as its own state, not as an unchecked box. A checklist that lets someone tick "Reddit" is lying to them.

No user-level opt-out exists. The corpus is licensed at the platform level. Deleting content does not recall what was already licensed.

Reddit is one of thirty-one

Every service on that list buries its opt-out somewhere different. Don't Train On Me puts all of them in one checklist in a panel beside your browser, walks you through them one at a time, and helps you confirm your privacy settings on the ones that expose a setting it can read. Free, no account, and nothing you tick leaves your machine.
