I think you could have gotten your point across without the rudeness. Talking to people like that creates a toxic environment.

I fully agree that there is no way I'm giving that info to FB. I noped out of running ads with them because they wanted my ID. My privacy is invaded enough by them, no thanks.

Thank you for calling this out. To some, this may seem like over-reaction, but only by calling even minimally rude statements out can we ensure that HN doesn't become Reddit.

FWIW - GP here, it wasn't intended to be rude, but more of an agreement that KYC exists but is totally besides the point. I'm sorry if it came off any other way than that.

Yes, I thought so (that you didn’t intend for it to be rude).
