Glad to know we're just 'noise', lol.

One minute our content (through the API) is "very valuable" and "needs to be monetized". The next we're just "noise".

If you can't be monetized, you're just noise. They don't see their community as people, they see them as data to be harvested and eyes to be advertised to.
