"Independent review of UK national security law warns of overreach" - this, apart from the addition of "UK", is verbatim from the article and much more accurately describes the event being reported.
- dang 10mo agoOk, let's use that. Thanks! This, btw, is exactly what we look for when doing a title replacement: > verbatim from the article and much better describes the event being reported That's what I usually call "representative language from the article" (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=representative%20article%20by%3Adang&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...). The idea is not to invent new wordings, but rather to find the place where the article 'confesses' what it is really about.
