Yes that would be a valid reason to make that request, but the commenter above was misleading people that they had to login, which is wrong.

- ceejayoz 14y agoActually, there are situations in which you get a G+ login prompt. An incognito window solves it, but it's annoying. Google Groups does the same thing.
- Terretta 14y agoYou are wrong. If you have previously logged into a Google+ account, but are not logged in, you are blocked from seeing the article w/o logging in. To circumvent, you can put your browser into Private or Incognito browsing, and you can then read the post w/o logging in. (Which also logs you out of HN, so you can't comment or vote.) So, for any of the HN audience with G+ accounts but who don't surf "logged in", a login is required unless the user takes extra steps (EDIT: such as incognito or child comment's noscript approach).
- brudgers 14y agoI have a G+ account. I don't surf "logged in." A login is not required for me to view the content. I suspect this is because surfing "not logged in" is not the starting point for improving my surfing experiences. The starting point is noscript.
