Source material

HN Radar does not own Hacker News content.

Story titles, submitter names, scores, comment counts, and discussion links come from public Hacker News metadata or linked source pages.

HN Radar adds selection, organization, labels, notes, summaries, and saved content pages. Original source pages and HN discussions should remain the authoritative context.

No professional advice

Do not treat summaries as final advice.

Pages about compliance, security, infrastructure, products, or companies are for informational reading and discovery.

Before making product, legal, investment, hiring, security, or purchasing decisions, inspect the original sources and get appropriate professional judgment.

Acceptable use

Do not use the site to abuse source communities.

  • Do not use HN Radar to misrepresent Hacker News users or linked authors.
  • Do not remove attribution when sharing saved pages.
  • Do not attack, harass, or spam authors, commenters, or maintainers surfaced by the site.
  • Do not overload the site or any linked source with automated traffic.

Changes

The site will change as the product matures.

HN Radar is under active development. Pages, rankings, labels, generators, policies, and monetization rules may change.

Material changes to privacy, ads, analytics, or user accounts should be reflected in the trust pages before those features are treated as production-ready.
