No, if someone who I do not like comments on a thread and other people upvote it, I will see it regardless of who I follow and will have no retribution, ignoring doesn't hide comments, and I have no way to downvote. Sharing content has come far, but the comment system still needs work.
Also, mk, there's no way to unignore the person that I used to try out something on this thread. :(
I agree that comments will require work. A plan I have is that an ignored user's comments will automatically appear near the bottom of the comments on a post.
Another possibility is that you can not only follow people, but simply mark them as favorites or something. These people would tend to filter up to the top in a post's comments. Still thinking on these things. Try http://hubski.com/ignoring?id=thundara. You can reach it through clicking on your name in the upper right. EDIT: Poor Lu. :(Also, mk, there's no way to unignore the person that I used to try out something on this thread. :(

Not yet! :)
The initial news.arc code, (which is an older version of Hacker News) is open-source (in /lib). But Hubski has diverged quite a bit from that (HN has too, to a lesser degree, I think).
