which website doesn't? I can only imagine the high quality discussions that such a site encourages.
- KerrAvon 4y agoYou're literally on one. Do you want to upload your driver's license to Hacker News? Does Hacker News want to be in the business of storing those driver's licenses securely?

- tshaddox 4y agoHow many different websites is any one person really commenting on these days anyway? It’s not like 1) independent blogs and forums are really a thing any more, 2) the blogs and forums that do barely exist have comments any more, 3) the major news and media companies have comments on their websites any more, or 4) you’d ever want to read them even if they did (let alone post your own!).
