Yes, sadly both of them have become flagged. That one was earlier so it has more traction I am actually reading the Hackernews rules and it seems that there is a chance to unflag certain posts so I am gonna go on the earlier one and strongly urge Hackernews moderators to unflag that post since discussions about these are being curbed smh > Users flagged the post as breaking the guidelines or otherwise not belonging on HN. Moderators sometimes also add [flagged] (though not usually on submissions), and sometimes turn flags off when they are unfair.
