There are facts in here, but they're very selective facts.
For example, in the "Sabotage" section, it describes how by turning off a server, Google turned a device "into a $300 out-of-warranty brick."
Now, it is a fact that the device did cost $300 and it was out-of-warranty, but pointing out that the device is out of warranty without also pointing out that Google offered full refunds for all of the devices is deceptive wording.
