It's not ok to make swipes like this in HN comments. The implication of shilling is out of line, and even if someone hasn't read any facts, posting a comment that is itself factless doesn't help.

Actually no this comment and this policy are not OK. Shilling happens on this forum and it is never called out. It needs to be otherwise it will in time kill the forum.

His post was either a shill or tragically ill informed. I merely highlighted this fact.

Probably.
EDIT I doubt that this particular poster is actually such a bot. I am suggesting that his post is based upon not actually reading any of the facts and merely taking an opinion.
