I wish it were the case. But please analyse majority of the top posts in HN with an open mind. One can clearly see the connection SV --> Funding --> YC --> TC. The outsiders are treated or ignored like pariahs. Have you heard a term "Made in SV". It may be subtle. But it is there.

I think you really poorly started the discussion. You should have made it clear exactly why your product is better suited to handle the problem. If you said something like

"We've seen many companies leak or improperly use your email addresses and other personal informations. The best solution is to host your own. Check out _____"

That would have been a proper sequitur and wouldn't come off as arbitrary pumping.
