I don't think pointing out how disconnected half of the userbase here is is unsubstantive. 99% of people who use Facebook has not the fainstest idea of what Facebook is doing, why they're doing it, and why it might be wrong. Still, on each of these threads the top comment invariably starts with "why is anyone surprised that.. etc". I could find you links to prove my point, but I'm can't believe you're not aware of this. So I strongly disagree my comment is unsubstantive.



It was unsubstantive by the standard we moderate HN for–shallow and repetitive, made worse by snark and tropiness. Please don't post like that here.

HN users live in this weird Silicon Valley bubble that is divorced from the real world..


Only about 10% of HN users are in Silicon Valley, and many of those are critical of it.
