So either sama is hacking "into her wifi" (?), hacking into her accounts, and pulling strings at unrelated companies to get her shadowbanned from Facebook, Instagram, YouTube etc (is that even a thing?)... or Occam's Razor applies and he didn't.

Shadowbanning certainly exists on all social platforms. Light version of it is how Facebook sells ad services - no one following your page sees content unless you pay.

You can add suppressing on hn to the list:

Per dang, that's a consequence of user flags: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38311933>

This is hardly unexpected for profound allegations without strong supporting evidence, and yes, I'm well aware that presentation of any evidence would be difficult to validate on HN, such that a third-party assessment (as in a court of law, for example) would typically be required.

I'm not claiming that HN has a stellar record of dealing with unpleasant news or inconvenient facts. But that any such bias originates from YC rather than reader responses and general algorithmic treatments (e.g., "flamewar detector") is itself strongly unsupported, and your characterisation above really is beyond the pale.

Only if it’s true. His sister could be a pos that just wants some of his money.

These allegations date back to 2021. If they were credible, I think the board wouldn't have waited two years to take action.

It might have taken two years for some evidence that Altman misrepresented something ti the board during an initial examination of them to come to light, though.

Not that I think it has anything to do with that; I think it more likely has to do with some kind of money issue tied to the LLC, given reports of others impacted, on and off the board.
