I'm curious: given the negativity of the comments why does the post have so many upvotes?

Do people find the technical details interesting despite the privacy concerns?

Either way, congrats to Martin, Sam and others on the launch. Getting something out the door to such a wide audience after working on it for over a year must be quite a challenge.



I think people decided that this was something worth discussing. A lot of times I won't necessarily agree with or like the post that I'm upvoting, but I upvote it so that it gets more visibility and then I can read other people's opinions and analysis of the thing at hand.


Even bad/negative stories deserve their moment of sunshine on the HN front page, perhaps even more so. How else would we be having this discussion?
