Please don't break the site guidelines with insinuations about astroturfing.

This is extremely well-trodden territory for HN: https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme.... The short version is that insinuations without evidence (someone posting a view you disagree with is not evidence) are at least as toxic and far more common than the thing being insinuated.

To think the only organic response is mob mentality against anything Facebook is silly. This is HN. We're here to discuss technology. As much as I stay away from Facebook these days, this particular flavor of security issue has happened to the best of companies in the past year, and it's natural to discuss that and why.

To genuflect to with "I hate Facebook too" before having a rational discussion is worthless virtue signaling.

There are still lots of "organic posts" on Reddit threads about Facebook's fuck ups implying that the "anti-facebook narrative" is a "Soros conspiracy", which leads me to believe Facebook is still working with the "Definers".
