Why was the title changed ? - the new title removes the fact that this is the official government response to the open access petition and not just a discussion piece.
- mmanfrin 14y agoExceptionally strict moderation policy. There have been many threads pushing back against objectively poor title edits, but the mods won't listen.
- rikacomet 14y agowhat is to mod, when it is 'actually' the official white house response!?
- mmanfrin 14y agoThe original title of this HN submission included 'Official Whitehouse Response'; HN mods changed it to something much less informative.
- rikacomet 14y agoyes, I had read it before it was changed. I know the need of modding, been a mod myself elsewhere, but it has to have some grounds, unlike in this case. Would someone please fix this?
- anigbrowl 14y agoIn fairness, the fact that it's from Whitehouse.gov pretty much tells you it's the official response. I don't disagree with your complaint though.
