How do you think Reddit is restoring posts that people have been deleting?

Do you think Google’s deal simply allowed them to scrape old.reddit? Hell no, there is probably a live replica of Reddit prod at Google somewhere, including deleted posts and all edits.

You don’t think they paid $60m just scrape, do you?
