Does Hacker Monthly obtain the rights to republish all the articles in their magazine? They probably do not need permission from Y-combinator, but they certainly need permission from the original article authors/owners. If they are not getting permission, it seems that they are stealing too.

We do. Every single one of them.

Every single one? Including the author of the css for your website?

Edit: Yes, as per your reply below, this comment stemmed from an eruption of confusion on my part. It (the confusion) is now contained and slumbering happily in the depths of my brain. I extend my sincere apologies.

Wait, there must be some confusion. I am the author of the css of my website.

Alright. Good to know. By the way, I was merely asking, I was not accusing anyone, so there is no need to downvote me.

I see you're using a computer. Did you happen to steal that computer from someone? Maybe a neighbor? Perhaps the local consumer electronics retailer?

I think they have requested permission from all authors. I remember I read it somewhere.
