-0.07 Theo on context management: "Delete your Claude.md (and your AGENT.md too)" [video] (www.youtube.com)
1 points by zahlman 18 hours ago | 0 comments on HN | YouTube represents a platform with deep structural conflicts between enabling human rights (expression, information access, cultural participation) and systematic violations of privacy, property, and labor protections. The platform demonstrates moderate positive lean on Articles supporting information freedom and assembly (Articles 18-22), but strong negative lean on Articles protecting privacy, property, and human autonomy (Articles 8, 12, 17, 23, 27, 29, 30). The surveillance and data extraction infrastructure embedded in page code creates pervasive privacy violations, while algorithmic control and corporate profit prioritization limit individual and collective autonomy.
