what‘s the meaning of this sentence?
Some 8,000 years on, one only has to write something vaguely positive about France to set the hounds of hell bounding through the “Comments” section.
Is the comments section related to hounds or hell?

It means that if you wrote something positive,lots of people would rush to comment on it (suggesting that lots of people "the hounds of hell" have bad things to say about France,and love to say negative things).
I hope this helps

Neither. "Hounds of hell" is a metaphor meaning "fierce opponents".
The sentence means: "The people who do not agree will be active in the Comments section posting vehemently opposing comments."
