That's not a problem, I think, for the demographic here on HN (and other places). But increased coverage reaches more people; how many have been mislead because they didn't do the above?

That's what tastes bads to me.

Were I a whistle blower I am afraid I wouldn't consider that a legitimate or trustworthy avenue any more.
