I was completely confused by why you were hellbanned. Then I stopped looking at comments and looked at your submissions: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4335811 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4335811 I'm guessing that got caught in the spam filter for use of the words "jewelry" and some of the other keywords in the Amazon link. This is one of the unfortunate side effects of running a startup that happens to be in a field that generates a lot of (affiliate) spam.
