The article mentions that they added filters for "Facebook and dozens of the other trackers" and includes an additional video demonstrating just how gross the tracking is.
- aliqot 4y agoI restate my case, the post doesn't add anything to the previous posts.
- pc86 4y agoYou didn't make a case, you made an easily falsifiable (and incorrect) assertion.

- jefftk 4y agoCalling it blogspam implies it's not adding anything, but promoting something from "buried in the comments" to "on the front page" means more interested people can see it.
- aliqot 4y ago> implies it's not adding anything I did not imply any such thing, I said it directly. Just because the word 'blogspam' is typically used in a derisive and impolite manner does not make this any less of what it is- content from an HN comment, transcribed to a blog, then returned to HN. This remark should not be an affront to our sensibilities. I have higher expectations of HN and do my part to discourage myself from taking part in this for the longevity of the community.
- detaro 4y agoCan you please point to the HN comment you claim the author took this from? All I can find is comments on previous discussion of the same project, and you can't really claim that Bert blogging about his own project is blogspam just because someone had beforehand submitted Berts project to HN already.
