Flock will be a big curriculum that tarnishes YC. Already under YC videos, comments are related to the Flock scandal. Denizen will want to make it a pain for YC until they fix their ethical problem.

Do not know about their competitors (and other countries/regulations), but Id guess this going to be a critical product for governments in the future?

All that karma farmed with paywall bypass posts. Kinda greasy.
