If you search HN for twitter posts and sort by popularity over the last 24 hours, no posts appear. I think HN is censoring new Twitter stories. Posting this was an attempt at trying to realize this in real time.
Noticed the same thing, but I'm not sure exactly because I tried other keywords ("silenced") and the article still didn't show. Search could just be crap. Or the article flagged in some way we can't see.
I posted the same article as you without seeing you post it first. Exact same URL string. And it didn't show up as a dupe and get combined. That does tend to make me think it's being treated "specially"
