Our bad reputation is not entirely undeserved, some of us are not as well behaved as others.
The fact that I didn't notice because I'm using Kagi anyway is probably one of the first hints at Google's downfall w.r.t. search dominance.
A bit hyperbolic, aren't we? Count me in for the destruction of the do-be-evil giant, but we're far from it not being absolutely dominant in the space. I didn't even know what Kagi was.
It has one killer feature: you can block Pinterest from spamming your results.

I don't blame them for the lock.

Edit: I'm not saying tesla is building a street view clone. I can't imagine they have the bandwidth for that. But the cars recognize construction, speed cameras, police cars, red lights, red light cameras, stop signs and read speed limit signs, which all gets sent back up in real time. They might have to pay to augment their traffic data until enough people without teslas start using the app.

HN is too orange.

Given this, I can see how this thing can attract low quality comments and have a very low chance of receiving interesting insight.
Now, since we are on HN I'll provide my one low quality comment on this: I guess it's a silly mistake that's not intended, but still feels like another whoops [1].
Also: come on Google, seriously? Don't you have QA for such things?

Mozilla elitism.
Of course outrageous GitHub issues get low quality comments from HN.
The guy probably reacted like this because of the dummy comment he marked as off topic and probably made the connection.

He might have said the same of Reddit, or any social network. It's pretty reasonable and I think he made the right call.

They probably did. However wanted to screw Firefox users the same way as the YouTube slowdown.
Seems unlikely they'd want to sabotage Firefox. Google is Firefox' primary source of income, and Firefox is strategically crucial token competition that stands between Google and an antitrust lawsuit of the sort Microsoft faced in the early 2000s (where Microsoft were basically a technicality away from being broken up).
