If you email hn@ycombinator.com, they may be willing to take this down for you, assuming you can't currently delete it on your own. I understand they do this very occasionally, when there is good reason to do so. Good luck!

The cost of information leak is borne by the poster, but the value of the information is gained by those readers. Thus, there's asymmetric benefit.
