HN comment claims Alphabet operates (profitable) information index
But Alphabet SEC filing discloses its revenue-generating operations are (a) online advertising delivery, (b) cloud-based solutions and (c) sales of other products and services
US law requires the statements in Alphabet's disclosure to be accurate, not misleading
Nothing requires statements in HN comments to be accurate, not misleading
What is "(profitable) information index"
Is it part of (a) online advertising delivery, b) cloud-based solutions or (c) sales of other products and services

"Nature of Operations
Google was incorporated in California in September 1998 and re-incorporated in the State of Delaware in August 2003. In 2015, we implemented a holding company reorganization, and as a result, Alphabet Inc. ("Alphabet") became the successor issuer to Google.
We generate revenues by delivering relevant, cost-effective online advertising; cloud-based solutions that provide enterprise customers of all sizes with infrastructure, platform services, and applications; sales of other products and services, such as fees received for subscription-based products, apps and in-app purchases, and devices."
Would "(profitable) information index" be included in (a) "online advertising" (b) "cloud-based solutions" or (c) "sales of other products and services"
