All roads lead to Rome. Or, in this case, San Francisco. Katie’s journey into the complex, fantastic and infuriating world of Reddit over the last five episodes has been shadowed by the murky office of the admin; so for the final episode of the season, Katie’s looking at the story of the people really pulling the strings.
