It is a huge problem here. I think the vast majority of people here on HN can recount a time when a post of theirs was downvoted into oblivion for being nothing worse than critical of a big corporation.
- moskie 12y agoDownvotes are one thing, but I don't think of that as astroturfing. On reddit, I much more frequently question the content of actual comments. Especially when it comes to posts regarding high budget entertainment, like for movie trailers and games and the like. There's just too many blandly positive short comments... I don't get the impression that happens on HN nearly as much.
