Yeah, Hacker News is full of not only censorship, but doing it secretly. I've been on this site since at least 2007.
For instance, I once had my account hellbanned for talking about how I'd met grace hopper as a kid. Seriously, was the only post in weeks and then poof, gone.
The unaccountable unelected masters of Hacker News have acted extremely capriciously and in a very politically biased fashion in the past.
I know there have been changes, but Hacker News should have a transparency report. Or some transparency.
