I agree that calling it prison is over the top, but I also think your response is a bit rude and dismissive of very valid statements by the reply


Good. Rude opinions deserve even ruder retorts. Every time a thread like this comes up, I’m reminded that the average HN user fantasizes about licking boots, and that those who do not enjoy bootlicking are treated as pariahs.
