HN mods will remove anything that isn't tangentially related to tech.

In this case, since it's Google, it can stay.

From what I see on a daily basis, mods do a really good job of curating articles focused on so many different topics with an even slight tie-in to the tech industry. This is one of the more interesting link aggragate sites or even original content sites. As a vehement bernier I'm thankful that HN didn't turn in a Bernie or Clinton voice box. During some really heated but frivolous political debates, HN was my sanctuary.

That's absolutely untrue.

HN mods (dang especially) frequently talk about how HN is not just for tech.

HN users flag political posts.
