Hacker News Reader

People should show respect on not link to foone here.

If one doesn't want to get linked to on the internet, one shouldn't post things to the internet. It is as simple as that.

What do you mean?

Let me quote from one of foone's tweets:

"I HATE GETTING POSTED ON HACKER NEWS"

foone doesn't like hackernews so I guess OP meant to show "respect" to foone and not link their stuff here.

foone gets harassed when their tweets get linked here.

Is that actually true though?

If one of their threads is interesting enough to show up on HN isn't it also likely to have been retweeted, shared around elsewhere too?

They certainly pop up in my feed constantly due to RT's from other popular tech people on twitter
