That’s not compensation. That’s companionship. There’s a difference. (Look Dang, no name calling)

Delete my content! Just as Apple, Facebook, Netflix, Google, reddit or any other big tech firm would do.

Irrelevant to our concerns here. What other people do with other information is not my concern. What HN does with my information is of direct concern and legal consequence.

Then that’s a problem. If my content is worth something then I should be paid or is should have a delete button. This isn’t trivial. I’m well versed in copyright. I have copyrights and receive in software, and from record labels. Compensati

My job is not to facilitate someone else’s needs and wants. The problem here is a lack of a delete button. That is primus here. I don’t have to answer your question. You have to answer mine.

You aren’t missing anything. Everything is public and I am an open book about this situation. I’m a privacy advocate, I delete accounts on social media from time to time, just not on HN, thus the posts. I have chatted with dang, posted, and

If my comments are not handy, delete them. If they are handy then I deserve compensation. If I created it I can destroy it. If I created it and was not compensated then I maintain ownership and copyright control. Delete them now! This has

Dang, you may remember I asked you to wipe out and delete my account months ago. [1] You didn't and wouldn't. Needless to say it left me disappointed in HN and you personally. You insist that a full deletion of my account would ru

The problem started in the 80s when Jack welsh was CEO. He thought it would be fun to invest in all sorts of specialized debt. At the time it made GE‘s balance sheets look great. Then the debt obligations started to show up, that’s when thi

Good technology is transparent. If advancements are done right, you would notice much difference. The truth is, not that much was different between 2000 and 2010 or 1990 and 2000. But 2010 and 2020? This last decade has marked such massive
