alt Hacker NewsIt really doesn't make sense to use a service and expect that service to not ever change (or be replaced), particularly when you're not the owner of said service. I love how HN is but I wouldn't blink if it changed tomorrow for example. Heck, there have been recent changes: there's now a filter system for LLM-generated content, for one.
It really doesn't make sense for businessowners to see themselves as independent from the society they operate in.
Especially in Google's case where they've invested so much into remaking how society works worldwide. To expect people to simply accept anything and everything Google wants to do just because they're a private business regardless of how many billions of people their actions affect?
Lunacy.
