Where does linkbaiting rate on this scale?

  Linkbaiting? Harmless. Also: I’m pretty sure that the author of this article actually believes that Jobs was lying. It’s not linkbaiting if the headline reflects the author’s beliefs.

    It could still be linkbaiting, just a slightly less bad version of it.

    People will stop linkbaiting once people stop being more attracted to linkbait. You can either use unsensational titles in protest, or write a title that will make people read your story. I apologize ahead of time for being realistic.
