- jjtheblunt 2y agoSusceptible? The usage looks unusual to me as a native speaker
- forbiddenlake 2y agoIt's probably the HN character limit cutting off the title. But it also works as a joke (short for suspicious or suspect) and a reference to memes from the game Among Us.

- MBCook 2y agoIt’s normally short for “suspicious”. It gained popularity from being used by players of Among Us when it shot to popularity during the pandemic. I had never seen it before that. It’s used wrong in the title, but that’s because it’s an accident. The headline was cut off: “…over 30 million Chrome users sus_ceptible to intrusive ads” Underscore to make the cut obvious.

- timbit42 2y agoIt doesn't mean the following but in British English 'sus' means 'assessed' or 'figured it out', as in, "I've sussed it and it's nothing to worry about". I'm not sure how far back this usage goes but Douglas Adams used it in THHGTTG in Zaphod Beeblebrox's mouth.
