Additionally, I don't like these posts without comment ability. It's advertising, and that's fine, but removing comments makes me feel like the poster knows if we had a voice they wouldn't like what we would say. Feels bad for HN to have to suppress speech on certain topics.

There have been a couple times when I've wanted to ask a question or make a comment but don't care enough to send them an email. Even Facebook shows a comment section on ads. Obviously, identifying these posts somehow is important, but there's gotta be a better way than killing the comments.
