I also got that the other day when submitting something via the bookmarklet. When I opened the "submit" page and copied things into the boxes (copy/paste) then it all worked.
Not sure what is being triggered, but it looks like more than one false positive for "spam" detection.
EDIT: As an experiment I've just tried to submit using the bookmarklet the RSA Animate of the talk and got the message again ... then I tried "by hand". Both times I got the "Stop spamming us" message.
I wonder if it's the direct link to the YouTube video that's the problem ...
Now I've succeeded with a link to a different site.
PG: You have an interesting glitch in your spam detection.
I just used the search function to look for HN submissions that contained the same keywords in the title, and noticed there are previous submissions that do. Even though its a different link and different content. I wonder if that's causing the glitch?
