> but it appears that Abdullah Atta, the CEO/founder, has openly expressed support for terrorist organizations like Hamas

A quick browse of their Twitter profile (https://nitter.net/thecodrr) doesn't seem to indicate any "openly express support for Hamas", do you have any links to provide for any of these accusations?

> Coupled with the fact that he is a Pakistani national

Are Pakistani nationals particularly bad at security, or what are you trying to say?

> has made questionable claims about Notesnook's security (it doesn't meet the strict definition of "zero-knowledge" in cryptography)

The whole "zero-knowledge" confusion seems shitty at best, misleading at worse, agree. Should definitely be fixed as it doesn't seem to be about zero knowledge at all.

It's intriguing to observe several new accounts challenging me and requesting "evidence." The evidence is readily available on Mr. Abdullah's Twitter account, as he openly expresses his harmful viewpoints. If you fail to identify any problematic content on his page, regrettably, there's little I can do to enlighten you.

My account is new, yes, but clearly not made to respond to you...

If there is so much evidence, why don't you link to just one specific tweet where they are openly supporting Hamas?

Asking again, can you please link directly to the problematic content ?

terror supporters should be banned from this site.

What does being a Pakistani national have to do with anything?

He does not answer to any reasonable Western legal system.

I wasn't able to find anything regarding his support for Hamas, do you have any sources/references ? Not knowing him, this comments seems more like a hate message towards Muslims/Pakistanis than an actual valid criticism.

Just browse through his twitter history (https://twitter.com/thecodrr), he's clearly in support of murderous terrorists that have attacked Israel.

Just did, and I don't see anything note-worthy. Just for debugging the situation a bit further, do you have the same kind of issue with this twitter account : https://twitter.com/UN ?

Please, link to the specific tweet where he is openly supporting Hamas, as was your original claim.

terror supporters like you should be banned from this site.

too bad you're posting from a throw away.

you're a coward

>Coupled with the fact that he is a Pakistani national

I don't think it's fair, at all, to associate someone nationalism with this.

The fact that he's Pakistani means he's not accountable under any reasonable Western legal system. I have the same issues with products of Chinese origin or Russian products for that matter.

No matter the nationality, you'd have a hard time making the author liable for anything, it's in the license (which is GPL3). The nationality of the author is completely unrelated to anything, no matter what country you are in.

> Coupled with the fact that he is a Pakistani nation

If someone mentioned race/nationality in a criticism, it is usually the actual reason behind that.

The fact that he's Pakistani means he's not accountable under any reasonable Western legal system. I have the same issues with products of Chinese origin or Russian products for that matter.

nah mate, it seems like you just have issues.

okay, muhamed

I hope this is not intended as it seems to be...

The message I intended to express is that the individual I'm addressing likely has affiliations with the Muslim community, or is a Muslim himself, potentially being a vocal advocate or sympathizer of extremist causes. Therefore, I believe there is no need to dignify their comments with a respectful or substantive response, as they appear to be engaging in trolling behavior at best, or is a terror supporter at worst (and likely scenario)

Well..it seems that we should apply "no need to dignify their comments with a respectful or substantive response" to your comments. As a non-muslim, I feel like you are being extremely offensive and that your comments are clearly against any standard required decorum.

the individual I'm addressing likely has affiliations with the [Black|Jewish|Asian|Sikh|American Indian|etc] community, or is a previously mentioned group member himself, potentially being a vocal advocate or sympathizer of extremist causes.

yep this comment is awful no matter what group gets painted with hate speech. sit down clown.

Troll account. Unfortunately mods are more interested bothering accounts that occasionally offend the HN zeitgeist.

this is racist bro.
