- bumby 3y agoPlease go review the HN guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html And to address the snarky mischaracterization, like with most things in life "it depends." As a general rule, I'm in favor of democratizing most resources, to include information. But there are caveats. I don't think, for example, non-anonymized health information should be open knowledge. Also, from the simple risk equation above, as the severity of consequence or the likelihood of misuse go up, there should probably be additional mitigations in place if we care about managing risk.
