Is it just me, or are the amount of hashtags quite jarring in the piece?

The whole thing reads like a bizarre, vaguely schizotypal manifesto, complete with it's own confusing form eccentricities.

I checked the "hashtags" link and was met with the following: "Hashtags are a critique and a rallying cry to gather round. They are the protest banners of the openweb"

Nothing says protest banner of the "openweb"(?) like a convention invented by Twitter.

when i got to the second hashtag, i scanned the following paragraphs, saw it's littered with them, and just hit the back button.

#'s are for signaling root access, and bash comments.

edit: and also IRC channels.

I had trouble reading it because they kept drawing my eyes to them, so I stopped.
