Hey. I wrote the article. Note, generally (not always) the editors and subeditors write the headlines, not the authors. They have a pretty good idea of what brings the clicks in, far better than me.

Oh I'm not upset about it. El Reg has always been a touch hyperbolic for the entire 20 odd years I've been reading it. Stay spicy my friends. :)
