> That is by no means all of these projects. I'm not interested in a circle-the-wagons crackdown because it won't work (see "it's foolish to fight the future" above), and because we should be welcoming and educating new users in how to contribute substantively to HN.

Is it really that difficult to identify bot accounts right now? Or people who create a HN account only to post their project?

That seems like low-hanging fruit that should be picked immediately.
