YC's decision to remove two of its CEOs who critiqued the accelerator publicly from its program raises questions about how YC moderates its community

TechCrunch : Tweets: @pardesoteric , @lzsthw , and @martinsfp Tweets: Arielle Pardes / @pardesoteric : “I think YC has become an institution, and institutions are viewed with high scrutiny,” says @garrytan. “That's not a bad thing, it's probably how it should be.” https://techcrunch.com/... Zed A. Shaw / @lzsthw : Very interesting article on “Bookface”, YCombinator's internal forum that nobody at YC is allowed to mention, post content from, or talk about outside of YC. Two founders did and they were thrown out of YC. https://techcrunch.com/... Martin Sfp Bryant / @martinsfp : I've always been struck by how much of a tight club YC is, even among founders who left the programme years ago. You don't really get that so much with other accelerators. https://techcrunch.com/...
