I once saw the claim: for any headline ending in a question mark, the answer is always "we don't know."
I have never found a counterexample.

Betteridge's law of headlines says the answer to question headlines is "No".

Not too hard to find exceptions. IMO it's a pretty worthless law even if only stated for entertainment value. A lot of times a yes-no question, like above, is just used as a low-effort intro to a low-effort article but sometimes a yes-no question could act as a well-thought-out intro to a well-thought-out article. It doesn't take too much experience to understand when a title is just being vague to draw you into a bad article.

Care to elaborate why HBR is awful? Article needs to provide more evidence that political regulation from rent-seekers is higher than ever before, but ultimately there's nothing that I would consider "clickbait" here.
Question titles like this fall under clickbait. Also HBR is awful...as illustrated by their clickbait titles and fluff for content.
