To me Ars Technica was always a tech blog site, but in the last bit most of the stories I've seen from them (through aggregators like HN) are all these Covid stories parroting various mainstream perspectives. I think this is typical of a lot of outlets that are straying from their core mission in search of covid eyeballs. Simultaneously, Ars is just one of many (including Neil Young now) that have somehow just become establishment shills. They are all entitled to their viewpoint, but it's extremely uninteresting and a perspective you can get literally everywhere, even if you don't want to see it. It's like a race to the bottom on who can most align themselves with the orthodox view. Whether I agree with it or not, I'd love to see more thought through perspectives, not just the same regurgitated stuff
