Reddit makes money through advertising like most other social media. They might talk a big game of removing bots, but at the end of the day, they want advertisers to think they have as many people as possible engaged on their site.

Unless advertisers start forcing them to prove accounts are real, I have doubts how much Reddit will actually change anything.

And who's going to tell their boss to stop advertising on Reddit, when you're competition is still advertising there?
