I would think this would fall under "Negative stories about HN" under the FAQ and be treated with sensitivity, so I would be really curious for dang to weigh in on this, especially since this has seemed to happen repeatedly.
I noticed this went from the top 10 to disappearing almost completely within a few minutes, without being flagged or anything.
Annie's claims aren't yet substantiated but she should still be able to share her story.
At the moment this looks like random gossip without any substance. It's not even clear whether this is really the person they claim to be. And the accusations are a bit unspecific.
In that form, it seems not appropriate content for this platform. Some professional should research deeper, verify and write some article first to back up the claims.
This seems like a personal and legal matter. It’s probably being removed because the allegations haven’t been properly investigated and HN is only a court of public opinion.

> Hurt people cause more hurt, and forms of abuse go together. I have endured physical, sexual, verbal, emotional, financial, and technological abuse at the hands of a human I once called my brother. I know he can hear our dad in his head reminding him that “love wins”
> Thank you for the love and for calling I spade a spade. I experienced every single form of abuse with him - sexual, physical, verbal, psychology, pharmacological (forced Zoloft, also later told I’d receive money only if I went back on it), and technological (shadowbanning)
> Aww you’re nervous I’m defending myself? Refusing to die with your secrets, refusing to allow you to harm more people?
> If only there was little sister with a bed you could uninvited crawl in, or sick 20-something sister you could withhold your dead dad’s money from, to cope.
X formerly Twitter seems to be quite good at limiting certain account's visibility and reach. Not sure if that's intentional or the result of some heuristics.
