I read HN regularly, but I'm pretty much a lurker on all social channels. When there's a conversation relevant to me or the products I work on, I like to jump in to represent the relevant company or products.
With respect to follow ups, I usually respond and move on to other things. I do my best to be open and transparent in online communities like these.
Moving onto your privacy concerns there are two things I'd like to say...
* Instapaper has always done hard deletes of user data when you delete articles or your account, it's been done that way since the Marco days.
* We have never monetized using user data, or developed any type of special targeted advertising for Instapaper.
