  Yes, it's HN policy to put the year on. But for 2023, that seems a bit overzealous, at least for today...

    Usually we finesse it for the first couple months of the year, like this: if the last-year post was only a little while ago (say 3-4 months) then we leave off the year tag, but if it was actually quite a while ago, we add it. In this case the article is from Feb 2023, so it's fair to add the year. Edit: I thought this story had some major attention on HN at the time but the biggest thread I can currently find is: Volkswagen briefly refused to track car with abducted child inside until paid - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34962563 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34962563 - Feb 2023 (16 comments)

      Yeah, I thought that this was from Feb 2024 at first.
