One long-standing code is that they moderate YC companies less on HN, allowing criticisms like yours to stand: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34320816

To HN's credit I haven't seen this rule violated.

For example I wouldn't have known it was a YC company if not for your comment.

Well, that’s what dang says he does. There’s no transparency and no publicly available data that would demonstrate adherence to the rule.

I don’t think you’d observe anything different if it were violated.
