This is a story from TheNextWeb. Isn't that the same outfit that has been recently exposed for Plagiarism: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3972651 while their CEO defended their behavior?

The story made it to the top of HN and earned an insane number of upvotes.

Is our memory really that short? Do we trust this story? Do we even want to read it?

Trust is not an issue. The issue is that every upvote is an implicit endorsement. One either was indeed despised with their sleazy behavior last week, or it was a just a good old fun of crowd lynching and me-too outrage.
