While not yet flagged, this submission how now been removed from the HN front page where it reached #6. It's the responsibility of this site to keep this story from being censored.

Maybe we are posting with green accounts because of the content of the OP?

Flagging is done by users, not YC themselves. Once you reach a certain karma you get the option to flag posts and comments.

YC can definitely also flag stories. This was just removed from the front page even though it wasn't flagged. They need to keep this alive if they want any shred of credibility.

It was flagged for a short while but someone probably vouched for it (another feature you get after a certain karma). The existing flags probably adds a downweight to it.

Yeah, a post from 2 hours ago with no comments and 5 points is on the frontpage but not this. Strange.
