What kind of propagandistic crap is this? Sorry, Tim Lee (adding the "B" has always felt like a fraudulent way to trade on the credibility of Tim Berners-Lee), the ink spilt in other corners of the Internet and in publications much more mainstream than yours is frankly just more in depth. (See for example Matt Levine at Bloomberg. [1])
If this is what passes for explanation from tech "journalists" these days, then it's a good indication of why I've stopped reading a lot of it. It's usually BS, from the condescending think piece headlines to the simplistic and ignorant but still highly know-it-all attitude.
No, Ars Technica doesn't actually publish much quality work anymore.
I get much more enjoyment and enlightenment from the much more interesting Jon Stokes on Twitter.[2] He was one of the Ars' founders before they became a typical 6th Avenue publication with a 6th Avenue editorial stance, that is, the journalistic equivalent of neutron degenerate matter, the kind of shop that tells you to sell, but pretends not to offer financial advice (not that anyone would prosecute anyway).
Yeah, no thanks.
