Now that the evidence is shared and reproducible, I agree with you. This should be an embarrassing moment for the r/seattle mods, but I somewhat doubt it will be. Glad a more level headed conversation found its way to HN.

What's to be embarassed? These are busy community moderators, not whitehat hackers. They don't owe anyone a writeup of technical vulnerabilities. They owe the community clear communication of rule changes and most people expect explanation of why rules were changed, and they delivered both.

Imagine the shame of blocking the spread of malware before attempting to appease somebody that’s falsely accusing of you hysterics.

Every day I wake up and shake my head that another mod on the internet did something without my, the Grand Regent of Online, say so
