I imagine there probably are a lot of FAANG employees on HN.
Though in my opinion, just sharing their view isn't inherently a bad thing. It only becomes a problem when they're encouraged to share from their employers. That would be propaganda.
If anything though, hearing from insiders may actually be more informative, or offer a new context that we can't see from the outside.
You have to be aware of bias, but that's just as true for other comments too.
