HN data is open? Under what conditions it's distributed?

[bastawhiz]

There's an API link at the bottom of every page.

And? I'm talking about entire dataset. API is irrelevant unless you scrape it and because HN rate limits actual users I'm sure it doesn't like scraping.

There are even datasets created by users over time and shared publicly.

[throwaway290]

Is this one of them? It sounded like it's some sort of official dataset.

no conditions! what, you didn't know your content would be free for LITERALLY EVERYONE when you made your account? and that you can't delete your comments? and it's a free for all? well, that's on you buddy, not HN, definitely not HN in any way
