No, it really doesn't "prove the point." Your entire comment is violating HN guidelines[1] left and right, so of course it is getting downvoted (and flagged), but not because you've uncovered some grand conspiracy.

And it would have been fine, if it was you who submitted them, not the CTO, who uses HN primarily for promotion, which is something guidelines explicitly forbid [1]. But mods obviously allow corporations to violate the guidelines and it's getting pretty annoying.
[1] Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to submit your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity.
