DF isn't blacklisted. I read (and actually quite enjoyed) "Google Versus" that was posted here three weeks ago. Additionally, a search reveals other decently upvoted DF submissions within the referenced time period.

Nice to see DHH spouting off some stuff. (I'm sure he'll apologize as soon as he realizes he and Gruber are simply confused) [DHH : HN :: Adrian Chen : reddit]. They ought to just leave well enough alone. Everytime they open with a blanket dismissal and comment on the participants of a site like reddit or hacker news, they really just make themselves look like angry resentful people.

I swear to God, I hope I never have the ego and name recognition that these people do. The paranoia that must cause someone to worry about their site being blacklisted from here and then assuming that a project they're involved with is ALSO blocked... is just a tad amusing. (And then taking to a soapbox without bothering with a 10 second search to confirm)

edit: Sorry if I got fired up, I'm having a hard time adjusting to my amazingly changed life now that I have yet another "gorgeous" "easy" note taking app that only works on one platform and doesn't sync to anything useful.
