Meta: how do you square this position with your usage of HN? Use social media only as much as necessary to bring about its demise? Regret its loss but feel it's socially necessary? Believe YCombinator will actually accept liability for everything posted here and it'll be fine?
- whimsicalism 6y agoAccept that I am going to be complicit and have to engage in things that are structurally problematic. The same way I buy gasoline, knowing that I am indirectly complicit in resource dispossession just by participating in that market. > actually accept liability My end goal is not in making HN liable for comments here, but I do think platform regulation is needed and if 230 has to be used as the "stick" to incentivize compliance, that might be necessary.
