YC companies aren't exactly multi-thousand-employee affairs. When you disinvite a YC company, you're really making a value judgment about its founders.

In this context, the companies actually were "mult-thousand-employee affairs", it was a judgement about which large companies were allowed to send investors to Demo Day.

From the article, these are companies like Comcast and Godaddy. It wasn't about actual YC companies.

Okay. I agree, that's different. My mistake.
