This website is inherently an egregious GDPR violation. It collects the most highly protected data category, political views, stores it forever, shares it with everyone on the internet, makes opaque automated decisions related to ranking, vote weighting, and anti-spam, and provides no mechanism for takeout or deletion. Because it's publicly available, an unlimited number of unregulated third parties can obtain your data and process it for undisclosed reasons without your opt-in.
Can anyone explain how it's possible to be positive about GDPR and HN at the same time? I'm not surprised that some people like it. I'm stunned to see them commenting here.
