If you had insider information that you though would adversely impact the price of a stock you’re holding, selling OTM calls against it would not be a valid way to attempt to offload your position. The thesis put forward in the article for why this is a suspect trade doesn’t make any sense, and seems to intentionally be conflating selling stock with being assigned.
