The readers of HN are human after all, unless you're all bots and I'm the last human. Oh gawd, what if I'm not human either. Oh crap, now I'm going to be fretting over that all day.

If you see a title, you have no idea it is from a 1st party or 3rd party until you read the article. Or, you could just come to the comments an diatribe away. That's the internet way, and claiming to be morally better than the internet is the HN way.
