Misleading title: these guys weren't kicked out for publishing a negative blog post, they were kicked out for sharing WeWork internal data publicly, which violates the terms under which they got the data.
Here's the blog post:

(I flagged the article because the title is a lie at present)
- minimaxir 10y agoThe article title itself was very recently edited to include this information. (I cannot edit the HN title)
- hkmurakami 10y agoIt's particularly nauseating to take a screen short of their "internal proprietary social network". A sense of trust is one of the most difficult things to build within a gathering of peer companies like WeWork has tried to do, and one bad actor poisons the whole well.

- joshstrange 10y agoYeah, medium posts do that when using the wayback machine. I normally just hit the browser stop button as soon as the text loads. You miss out on images but you can still read it.
