Thanks, but it's a YC security issue not an HN/dang issue – security@ycombinator.com!

it seems that i have very recently aquired some new links in my footer, one of them is what your mentioning. either its something i have changed on this particular agent, somthing changed on HN, or a newly aquired feat due to accumulated X.P. thanx for pointing at it.

Security's been in the footer for ages (as you can perhaps tell from the log), and it's visible without being logged in (0 karma)
