They also sell flags, somehow im not surprised. Anything the HN community can legally do to hurt this company? From their page: If you are from or located in a jurisdiction with laws that require us to provide refunds, and you proceed to place an order with us, you waive and forego all rights to a refund, no matter what other factors may be brought into consideration. IANAL, but this seems dubious to me. Could a wave of credit card chargebacks be fruitful?

Hopefully management will find out.

It will be very easy for them to buy a few updates and catch the upvoters in a sting.

Well, this anchor is for free - buying HN upvotes/ comments seems unfair and distorting.

I voted this up so that it would get attention and the people involved would get whacked.
