From Wikipedia[1].

'In the summer of 2014, Sam Altman became president of Y Combinator. Y Combinator also announced a Board of Overseers: Brian Chesky, cofounder of AirBnB, Adora Cheung, cofounder of HomeJoy, Patrick Collison, cofounder of Stripe, Drew Houston, founder of DropBox, Jessica Livingston, David Rusenko, Emmett Shear, and Sam Altman, cofounder of Loopt.'

Y Combinator, and by extension HN, is in cahoots with the people at Dropbox.

This isn't a game of three generations of punishment. The problem is with Rice and her role at Dropbox, not everyone connected to Dropbox.


I would say Drew Houston, and investors in Dropbox are more specific than 'everyone connected to Dropbox'.
