Kind of wish it hadn't been flagged and disappeared from the front page so quickly.
We detached this subthread from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12534132 and marked it off-topic.
Meanwhile, some recent HN topics that were not flagged as off topic include:
* The '80s Public Access Films Produced by a California UFO Cult
* Affliction and Salvation: Love Was a Learned Art for Iris Murdoch
* My Motherland: Finding–and writing–the worlds where only I had been
* Plaster Perspectives on “Magical Gems”: Rethinking the Meaning of “Magic” in Cornell’s Dactyliotheca
* I quit my job, bought an army truck, and spent 19 months circumnavigating Africa
* The Real Lolita
So two points --
(a) I am not a Republican; and
(b) This seems deeply broken at best.
Can anyone convince me it isn't a form of censorship? I'm not too familiar with HN's moderation setup.
Edit: Also, the title doesn't fit the post.
(b)He just plead the 5th on questions involving whether or not he complied with the investigation legally, which people normally do to avoid incriminating themselves.
At least that's how I understand the situation.
If by that you mean he didn't say "tokenization" specifically, sure. But "strip out or replace the email address in the to/from fields in all of the emails" sounds kind of like tokenization, doesn't it? Sounds to me like how I might ask about it if I don't know the exact words for it.
All I know for certain is that I sure hope nothing important ever rests on the exact phrasing of something I've written on reddit.
