Hacker News has active moderation and would be effectively illegal to operate if you made websites that practice moderation legally responsible for any illegal content posted by their users.
If you really believe this is the right path to go down you should stop being a hypocrite and delete your HN account since you clearly believe HN has no right to exist in its current form.
- trevyn 6y agoI support figuring out how to make Hacker News work without active moderation. It's simplistic to assume it can't be done.
- cinquemb 6y agoModeration by the users themselves could work, but that might not toe the line that HN wants to showcase (but may have to accept if they don't want to get sued and keep it running). On other platforms, advertiser may have to incentivize (monetarily or otherwise) users to post the kind of USG they want their ads nearby (assuming they still want to advertise on the platform).

- happytoexplain 6y agoTo hear the laments of moderated users, you wouldn't think that. It all depends on whether its your opinion being subjected to any scrutiny.
