Explain to me how you would come to that conclusion if it wasn't for the media? And how would you justify spreading that information if it came from "not really accurate or objective" media? Without being able to cross-check, you're just spreading one-sided gossip, if not rumors like the snake island story.

You've been breaking the HN guidelines so badly, so repeatedly, and so shockingly, we have no choice but to ban the account. I don't want to do that, but this is not allowable here:
