They’re still having problems with Hurricane Electric and other telecoms, problems no legal website should be having. The fact that they could even have these problems is itself a big deal, considering this has never happened before in the history of the Internet.

And it was never that their speech was “immediately getting people killed” (which is an exaggeration given even their most liberal “kill count” isn’t even in the double digits), but that certain people with tech connections (who have been redacted on HN) don’t want their “consent accidents” on public websites.

I'm fine with websites that kill people having trouble finding an ISP. I see nothing wrong with that. That is not the result of sliding down any slope. In fact, there should be more penalties. Usually when people are killed we put the perpetrators in prison for life.
