Because companies like to engage in censorship when opinions arise that go against what's popular. That's why HN is one of the best places to discuss, free speech is allowed wholly and there is no censorship or heavy-handed moderation at all.

- PartiallyTyped 4y agoThe same censorship exists when you can’t read a message because it is too gray or white. There is also censorship when a comment is flagged even without actual reason. Another particularly annoying form of censorship is being unable to defend a position when providing something controversial which limits your submission rate. HN often comes out with very tone deaf responses and takes, so I don’t think that it is the best argument. HN is also a rather niche community that caters to a very specific audience.
