I’d trust a reputable news outlet to do the vetting of the story, but that never seems to happen with these Reddit posts. They just become cultural artifacts and get repeated ad nauseum.
Even if it is perfectly true and exhaustively verified, 'one business had an interaction with Yelp they are unhappy with' is not a that story belongs on HN because it's not interesting.
