Please don't post personal attacks to HN. If you don't owe better to the Privacy Commissioner of New Zealand, you at least owe it to this community not to degrade it like that.

Also, in the case that your view is correct, stooping that low discredits the truth. That's bad for everybody.

You're quite right. I had regrets after posting that knee-jerk comment. Oddly, my dissatisfaction is heightened by the ridiculous number of upvotes I received from that post. I shall strive to improve.

Appreciated!

It's an unfortunate weakness of the voting system that knee-jerk comments tend to get highly upvoted. HN can't go by upvotes alone.
