What gives you the right to complain about my complaining, but not me the right to complain in the first place?
What gives you the right to complain about my complaining, but not me the right to complain in the first place?
Paywalled sites are OK, if there is a known workaround - usually someone will post this in the comments.
If the paywall is impenetrable for that article, it shouldn't appear on HN, and you should flag the post and alert the mods via email (hn@ycombinator.com).
By the way, you'll get negative reactions to complaints like this, as this question has been raised and discussed countless times before on HN, and people get bored of seeing the same discussion over and over. The policy HN has adopted is considered to be imperfect, but the least-worst option.

The most relevant guideline to this situation is this:
> Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, flag it. Don't feed egregious comments by replying; flag them instead. If you flag, please don't also comment that you did.
