Someone needs to prompt "how do I letsencrypt?"...
I did prompt it. Let's Encrypt still doesn't issue .onion certificates :) Onion Services already provide end-to-end encryption and service authentication anyway. Tor currently lists DigiCert and HARICA for publicly trusted onion certs. I actually use a HARICA certificate on the onion mirror of this very blog, so I promise HTTPS on onions has crossed my mind before.
Was expecting to learn whether The Onion knows I'd vote for Joad Cressbeckler.
This has nothing to do with "The Onion". It's talking about a TOR service. Importantly, TFA does not capitalize "the onion" in its title, and I don't understand why this post does.
Suddenly at 11:10am PT I can't find this OP in the top 210 HN posts. I'm pretty sure I found it on the front page less then 20 minutes ago.

It doesn't show as flagged. Do other see the same? Anyone know what is going on?

(And now HN is rate-limiting me, so you probably won't see this for a little while.

@mods - mysterious UX issues are starting to suck.)
