+[2026-07-24 18:41] Tell HN: Protect Privacy, Leave FCC Comment, Deadline Tomorrow

The deadline to comment on the FCC’s proposed rule to require government ID, physical address, and alternative phone number for every phone line in the US is July 25.

You can submit a comment by going to https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings/express, selecting Express Comment at the top of the page, and entering 17-59 and 02-278 as the docket numbers in the first field.

Genuine (not AI generated!) personal accounts will be most compelling. If you are an American, please consider speaking out against this proposed change, which will be a disaster for personal privacy in the USA.

[2026-07-21 21:19] Show HN: StarSkew, a privacy-light Amazon review analyzer (starskew.com)

I built "StarSkew". A privacy-light Amazon review analysis tool. Right now, Chrome and Edge extensions are available.

The extension displays a small feedback box on the Amazon product page, giving you an easy "red/yellow/green" rating for the product's reviews.

In its initial version, it simply checks the average rating, review count, rating distribution, and review velocity. It doesn't analyze review text and doesn't collect any browser history.

Demo: https://youtu.be/fX2bChgv3Gw

Happy to answer any questions!
