If that was true, HN wouldn’t make their name green. The fact that their name is green is an indicator from HN that their comments should be scrutinized.
Great. Now do that. Scrutinize. Rather than complain. All three points the OP made are entirely factual statements. If you detect bias, please inform us why?
Throwaway accounts are discouraged in the site guidelines:
>Throwaway accounts are ok for sensitive information, but please don't create accounts routinely. HN is a community—users should have an identity that others can relate to.
This user isn't revealing sensitive information, and it seems like they are trying to hide a conflict of interest.
The community guidelines are addressed by other users below...
- THE name is green for a reason.
- OP can declare in a public domain that he has no conflict of interest by any direct or indirect means.
As a long time member of this community, it is a simple and just request. You may choose to diverge the attention elsewhere for your own motives or beliefs.
OP: please declare that you are free from any conflict of interest.
