This website is not a tool - not really.

Your keyboard is.

Censoring AI generation itself is very much like censoring your keyboard or text editor or IDE.

HN is the one doing the distribution, not the user. The latter is free to type whatever it wants, but it is not entitled to have HN distributes his words. Just like a publisher do not have to publish a book he doesn’t want to.
