That was absolutely my first thought. The article basically starts out with "everyone's doing it", then talks about how all the tech guys are taking part, and even goes as far as explaining the value proposition of "...girlfriend experience, without having to deal with an actual girlfriend.". It reminds me of those "Don't buy <popular nutraceutical> until you read this" advertorials, which purportedly offer a critical look, but are actually written by the nutraceutical company. I've flagged the post. I recommend you do the same.
