How is the submitted article related to the headline? There's no claim of a "24hr notice" there, just that new sponsorships aren't being accepted.

Then I think they should submit the email (e.g. in a pastebin or Google doc or something). Not misrepresent the contents of this page.

First, editorializing the submission titles is against HN policies. Second, it'd let us see the actual communication from Vercel rather than a paraphrase.

It's fair to ask for proof. I checked Twitter and there's another user who posted a screenshot of their email. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40683874

Thanks!

And it's not so much about proof, it's about the details. For example the $300/month discount for a much longer transition period seems like pretty relevant context.
