Hardwalled articles (that is, paywalls without workarounds) aren't allowed on HN - see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10178989 . theinformation.com used to open certain articles for HN readers but they stopped responding to our emails years ago

@dang, why are Medium paywall articles still allowed on HN? They recently went hard paywall.

If it's hard paywalled, it's not allowed.

Detecting these things is another matter. We don't know how to write code to do that, and it's impossible to keep track of manually. Even for a given site it's different for different regions, different users, etc.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Nobody's targeting you. You posted a hardwalled article, which is against HN's rules; that's all.

sort by date, several articles from this site posted in the past few weeks with zero HN moderation commenting: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu... While HN moderation might argue X Y or Z, the evidence confirms targeting, the comments here by HN moderation stigma both submission and discussion, and the substance of the article is primarily the headline anyways.

Here are other non-paywalled articles reporting on the news, but some say The Information was the first to report. https://nypost.com/2023/11/13/business/openai-reportedly-try... https://www.businessinsider.com/openai-recruiters-luring-goo... That said, the headline says the most of it: OpenAI-Google poaching wars similar to Facebook-Google now about 10 years ago, though the pay packages are about double today. Note…

This is... dramatic.

Moderation comments appearing at the top of a thread is pretty common and makes perfect sense to me. One of the 'references' you're talking about is the site FAQ, and the other is a thread explaining the policy change re: paywalled articles; I'm not sure why its age is relevant.
