Your business problems aren't our concern. If you're financing your business by stealing personal information from users and selling it to data brokers, then you're a crook. Crooks tend to have high hosting expenses.

"Our" as in Robespierre's Committee of Public Safety concern? What do you know about hosting expenses? I have been running a website that you know and use with 100m users since 2004!

The only website that you know I use is this one. Are you saying that you run HN? I do not think you are that person.

If that's not the site you're referring to, I'm rather curious to know what site it is that you run, that's had 100m users since 2004(!), that can correlate a site user with this HN user. Will you tell, please?

The CSP has never been Robespierre's "property" and took decisions as a, well, committee.

And yes, your expenses aren't our problem. Don't run a website if you can't pay for it.

"Our" as in all the people who don't want to be tracked.
