Who's this dick bschmidt711 that's spamming HN?
Title says it all
- Jtsummers 2y agoI think the question answers itself. Some dick that's been spamming the site all day.
- mrintegrity 2y agoLet's see, childish, kinda sad, certainly lonely. Elon Musk is my guess
- plasticsoprano 2y agoHe’s a wittle baby that thinks Wiz doesn’t actually have a product and is a shell company designed to buy other companies and then be acquired. He’s also an hard core antisemite. And a dick. ETA: it’s not a theory, you said it yourself the other day on the wiz post. Also, I’m not Jewish.
- bediger4000 2y agoNobody likes a spammer. Once a spammer, always a spammer.
- dlivingston 2y agoVery strange. Can't tell if they're doing it "for the lulz" or it's some sort of psychotic breakdown. Either way, good stress test for HN's spam moderation I suppose.

- thomassmith65 2y agoI flagged this. It's the only visibility the troll in question has achieved. All his posts are dead. Only the minority of us with 'show dead' enabled need know anything about it.
- neo4llm 2y agoMy Conspiracy theory is: he's trying to get people set "showdead" false. Why would he want that though, I don't know...
- numpad0 2y agoCould be symptom than disease. He's now including the word "pedo", and I don't think that is not a universally effective derogatory.
- thomassmith65 2y agoIs it worth any psychoanalysis? It's the internet.
- neo4llm 2y agoPsychoanalysis? No Threat analysis? Maybe HN has value larger than for just for the community of people commenting here. It is also used as a platform for YC companies. YC Founders can even see each others usernames in orange color[1]. A spamming actor could also be testing the limits of the system now for a future attack. Anyway, this is the job an Infosec team usually deals with. Hopefully @dang / HN team has access to people with such skillset.

- thomassmith65 2y agoThreat analysis? Fair enough. It's probably as simple as 'Dan handles moderation and he's asleep'
- varenc 2y agoIt's had the opposite effect for me. He made me switch showdead back to true so I can be blissfully ignorant.
