Hacker News Reader

How can you determine when friends and family are upvoting posts?

After some investigation:

mootothemaxx = spotco (see email listed on github page: http://imgur.com/vepCH7O.jpg)

xxxxx0 = https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=xxxxx0 = account created 757 days ago, no submissions/comments;

OP = https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=spotco = account created 757 days ago.

While that does appear unlikely and suspicious. Does that necessarily prove they are same? Maybe multiple friends found hacker news same day. I rarely login vote or interact but I have lots of old rarely used accounts on different sites.

How do you determine who upvoted?
