Hi Alexis, thanks for the clarification regarding the ads.

That said, I still have concerns about the power dynamic. I do see that users are credited for submissions, but Reddit is the one that mostly benefits from it, especially since ads are being run on the site. It's the same concern that people have with BuzzFeed that attribution alone won't solve. (There's also the issue of determining if Original Content on Reddit is actually OC, and that could lead to interesting problems.)

As mentioned in the original image, Upvoting still does encourage brigading on submissions (https://www.reddit.com/r/Upvoted/comments/3ni1il/upvoted_wee...), which can have fallout in the future.
