HN is deleting comments and censoring it. If the story got bigger they'll mark this as "dupe" and put their bots all over their version of coverage. Joke


Why would HN be interested in deleting comments about this? Looks like there was a discussion previously, although not regarding the deal:

We aren't deleting comments about this. The complaint is made up.


That's not the same story, but it leaves a clue:

> Character.AI co-founder Daniel De Freitas is also joining Google with some other employees from the startup. Dominic Perella, Character.AI’s General Counsel, is becoming an interim CEO at the startup.

This story that I shared completes the picture: Character.AI was effectively acquired by Google for $2.7B. Nobody needs to know though you're right, just hide this article and delete any critical replies.
