    Do you have a brand you like? I'm thinking of getting a countertop device soon and they sell a "re-alkalizes it" version but I don't know if that's "enough" and of the right type a…

    This is a site that steals content and rehosts it and is posing as Reuters.com. Note that there is no proper listed author, the "About" is generic and vague (if you search "Here we…

    User "JBaum" denying ownership of an article stolen by "James Blobaum" who loves using the word "Baum" in his ramblings. Sure, okay, totally legit. Hackernews isn't for spam or the…

    For sure. Their other submissions match the substack by the same name as the author on this site and also matches the OP's username. The content of those submissions are insane ram…

    "I'm pretty sure he just launched the site and he's working on it" -- you're the site owner, your username matches the author/owner of the website. What sort of spammy shtick are y…

    Most of the VPN discussion/coupon subs are literally run by the VPN companies themselves. r/VPNCoupons and r/VPN are run by Surfshark, for example. Nord and CyberGhost also run ast…

    I got two of the exact same spam messages in a gmail inbox this morning that was as of yet "unspoiled" and not in some spam email database. Those were probably the first in more th…

    I see a lot of fake companies/websites list their address as 405 E 42nd St, New York, NY 10017 -- which is the UN's NY HQ. There's a few mailing centers with P.O. Boxes in the area…

    They've been mass-spamming this on Reddit using multiple accounts and sockpuppeting to promote it too. They also promoted this in a Show-HN 5 days ago as well and it flopped: https…

    I can't speak for that user in particular but I use Reddit for music discovery as well. My flow is this: I'll look for stuff with the genre tags I know I like and look for new arti…

    You've set yourself apart from the 'grifters' in the Web3 space in your comment but didn't explain much more than that about current use-cases. Could you elaborate on what it is yo…

    I caught Swine Flu in 2009 and really struggled for a few months after but it mostly went away. I can still think of several things that still aren't "right again" even years later…
