Comment was ghosted, comment seems like a valid viewpoint:
"It's easier than ever for people to moonlight as a spy and get away with it. You'll probably only get caught if your adversary has the means and motivation to counter. Most people in civilian/domestic situations are unable to defend themselves".
edit: HN has gone down the toilet progressively for the past 8 years. There's no reason the comment (or my resurrection of it) should be downvoted or ghosted.
The other account was "bbllbves" and it shows "1 point" but a moderator 'saw to it' that the comment disappeared silently. If it were a low-value or troll comment, then maybe that would be justified.
I made a post using a throwaway the other day that was silently ghosted. Multiple accounts were not involved at that point.
