We didn't rate limit you. But I think you're underestimating the flamewar effect of a comment that begins "I honestly don't need to know more than: It's run from $Country".

Well, thanks! I tend to be direct in my language usage. I'll make it more convoluted/obfuscated in the future when talking about e.g. China.

Convolution and obscurity are not the desired qualities.

I feel like this makes it impossible to sufficiently criticise countries that, eh, objectively deserve criticism. In a way, that's fair; HN is not a country review site.

However: Once in a while we get something like deepseek that is very obviously the product of some particular country.

I think the trick is to talk about the product rather than country.
