Yep, it's obvious that a lot of people are interested because junk articles like this usually get penalized harder. That interest is what this piece is preying on. Unfortunately it's easier to write a piece that tells people what they want to hear and spreads FUD than it is to write a piece that corrects the misinformation.

Much more rewarding too, because "we really don't know very much about this yet" is hard to expand to a full click-worthy essay and less likely to move product.
