This happens routinely on HN. People read one thing, which causes them to remember or discover something else on the same topic, and submit that. People likely to upvote one will likely upvote the other. Frequently, that second submission started as a top HN comment in the first submission.

While I agree that this is ordinary for very rich people, it's good reporting and context for us to know where and how the 2nd richest man in the world takes a tax deduction that we publicly fund.

Someone compiled a big list of deals on apps, SaaS software, utilities, books, courses, etc and seems to be taking PRs: https://github.com/trungdq88/Awesome-Black-Friday-Cyber-Mond...

I agree with this. I would also consider talking to a recruiter or paying a professional resume writer (one that specializes in tech) to help rewrite your resume and adjust your positioning.

USG already publishes a ton of free data, like weather and maps. The ecosystem of repackaging and building improved services seems to be working fine because it opens up a broad range of competitive options, not a paid embargo to a few.

I can think of a few accounts that, with a single tweet, could move markets, inflame tensions, or kick off multiple cycles of misinformation. For many of these large, influential accounts, Twitter is effectively the same as an official press release.
