Can you please not break the site guidelines like this? It's, well, against the site guidelines, and it's also not in your interest. When you post like this, you're hurting your own case, in exchange for the momentary relief of venting/railing against "fools". (I don't mean just you, of course—this is a common problem; most of us have it to some degree.)

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful. Note these two:

"Please don't fulminate."

"Eschew flamebait. Avoid unrelated controversies and generic tangents."

Do you actually look into what this document is stating? The document linked to in this article is not from the FDA, but from the group suing them for the FOIA request. This filing, and others from this group, are only allegations. This is not evidence from the FOIA process nor a statement from the FDA. Since I cannot find the original sources of these documents, I can only link to these: Docket: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21087968-txn-42021cv... Filing 1: http://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/001-Complaint-10... Filing 2: https://www.sirillp.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/020-Secon...
