It's crazy that the top comment on HN these days is this kind of crackpot conspiracy thinking.

Trying to collect personal info might not be the motivation but it's not at all a crackpot theory. And what's the conspiracy aspect of calling a big company a liar?

Your dismissal is so much weaker than the post you're replying to.

    the conspiracy aspect is alleging a conspiracy without providing any evidence, which is apparently how 90% of people function now. Calling someone a liar because you invented a conversation in your head isn't entirely sane

      Nobody alleged a conspiracy.

      That's not why they said that. This is a ridiculous criticism of OP.
