I don't think HN is immune to these kinds of CCP ops.

I doubt HN is even on the CCP's radar. Not only are we a low-value target, we're much harder to subvert.

Imagine the workflow for the average PR department. Discover mentions of key terms and phrases, and when they occur, create an account and engage when future mentions are made.

Bureaucracies have no rational sense.
