NotOscarWilde, I'd appreciate if you removed info regarding other people. The article was supposed about me, my feelings and the process of handling a personal crisis. My intention was that people read this post in a self-contained way, without relation to any other people (whose names I didn't mention on purpose), and I feel like most people here did. Maybe I could have expected folks spending time googling this type of unnecessary background information, it still got me by surprise. I'd really, really appreciate if you edited your comment insofar as a matter of respect to these other people.

I doubt they can edit their comment at this point. If you really want it removed, reach out to [email protected] for (accidental) doxxing.

Indeed there is no longer a possibility to edit or delete for me.
I was careful not to include names or places, and all this information is easily searchable starting from the author's username on HN or the website name.
So while I maintain that I made my comment in good faith, I hereby acknowledge that it is okay if it gets deleted, should HN moderators be requested to do so.
Update: I will contact the HN moderators myself, as I feel it is the right thing to do here.
