Whenever India and its authoritarian stances are mentioned, a number of folks (I presume Indians, both on HN and elsewhere) come out of the woodwork to sing praises of "national security" while saying nothing about how such power

The incident report is very light on details. For example, it mentions adding instrumentation caused the issue, but no details as to how why they'd need to remove headers or how they'd contain it in the future, except for that the

The last time I happened to point this out[1], all I got was a bunch of HNers nitpicking the words I chose, but not addressing the core issue. I have to assume this is just people being protective of their own profession and consequently, s
