The protest wouldn't have done squat. So long as the protest was finite, spez knew people would forget and move on.

Also he tested everything with kid gloves till recently, when they booted mods. He could have gone that route earlier if there were bigger protests.

The protest was mostly the mods blacking out their subs to bring attention to the issue, but most users didn't care, and never would have.

Spez is hell bent on that IPO, and nothing would have stopped that.
