Yes, everybody has access to Hide and Unhide. It doesn't quite work the way that we want it to yet -- the current version of Hide collapses the conversation to a single line, but doesn't actually remove it from the page. That collapsed line is still a pretty shiny button that says "Click here to see the bad thing". :)So we're going to make a change very soon that will actually take the Hidden topics off the page, and just have them accessible in the board history and contributions. I think that's a better match with the way it works on talk pages.

"Concerns about access to viewing or editing others' posts" in the

anyone to be able to delete others' comments.
The Flow team should correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that "hide" is available to everyone, and deliberately similar to simply removing/deleting a wikitext post (when I say "deleting" here, I don't mean the actual action=delete as it applies to wikitext).
For wikitext, that removes the post/section from the page, but it's in history and can be re-added by anyone. For Flow, it hides it, but it can be unhidden by anyone.
