How would you have recommended I title this article? The app is very likely listening to its surroundings.

- dang 10y agoPlease read the HN guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html You should have used the article's own title. The guidelines ask submitters to change titles only when they are misleading or linkbait. But you've been rewriting titles to make them more so, not less so. That's not ok. On some sites where people post articles, the submitter owns the title and can make it say whatever they want. HN doesn't work that way. Submitters have no special rights over the title, which should be neutral and as reflective of the article content as possible.
