Please don't shill someone's blog here. This kind of "native advertising" is not appreciated. If you have a point, make it. Don't just use it as an opportunity

- fsflover 1y agoI gave a link to an extensive HN discussion, not a blog.
- renewiltord 1y agoSure you did. And the link at the top of the page was just a coincidental "banner ad" that you had nothing to do with. If you simply wanted to share that content without the link, it's just plain HTML. Trivial to do. It's not ethical for you to be doing this kind of submarine advertising on HN without disclosure. Please just admit what you're doing rather than pretending.
- fsflover 1y agoLet me disclose that I have no connection whatsoever with the linked blog.
- Dylan16807 1y agoAre you doing some kind of bit here? It's easier to share HTML than... a link? If this is supposed to be an analogy to how people will argue over what's an ad so a rule is infeasible, it's a bad analogy. If it's literal then you're not making sense.
