This seems to be just weird propaganda from some intelligence company/person. How is this allowed on hacker news? This forum is fairly closely moderated, is it only articles critical of YC that get removed?

Hate to break it to you, but most links on this site are just weird propaganda from some startup

  Propaganda is political, promoting your company is marketing. Besides, this seems to be more extreme in it's lack of fairness/ journalistic merit. It seems to be just like I said, weird propaganda, not really even masquerading as news. It looks auto generated, like a bot farm created a web site and got it on hacker news for the clicks.

      Did you write the article and then post it to hacker news?

      That's exactly what a bot trying to impersonate a human would say.
