Funny, but not true. This change in measuring US inflation is common knowledge among investors interested in US macro.

Indeed, this is just a guy spreading fear to sell his book, which coincidentally has an ad at the bottom of this crappy blogpost.
Anyone watching monthly CPI numbers is aware that the BLS changed the basket of goods used to calculate inflation as well as using a single year of data instead of two years. The BLS communicates these changes months in advance, and all the big banks/funds update their models accordingly.

Ie, nobody except the people who need to know.
It appears to be a common thing - conspiracy theorists think that because the general public doesn't know(/care) about the esoteric details of some subject, that no one knows.
