The comments suggest that most people have seen this, but I have no idea what the context is. Can anyone explain?

The LW mods are relying on a website to verify news, but it barely works outside of U.S. coverage, making it useless for global news (it's like they think the U.S. is the whole world). They ask for feedback, but let's be real—they're too stubborn to accept any criticism

LW? LimeWire? LessWrong? Luftwaffe? The deprecated chemical symbol for Lawrencium??

Americans sure love their acronyms.
