Please don't cross into personal attack. It destroys what this site is for, and you can always make your substantive points without it. https://news.ycombinato

  Didn‘t know that pointing out a lack of accountability is seen as personal attack. Who wants the fame must also take the blame. Especially if they create a dangerous tool.

    We don't want mobs on HN. There was very clearly a mob dynamic happening in the replies. Edit: there was another case of this recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47576107 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47576107 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47576084 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47576084 The point is that mob dynamics do more damage to the community than the threads add value, and protecting the community has to be the high-order bit.
