There is no question mark in the original title, though probably there should be one.
It's only one character, but adding it has significantly changed the meaning of the title. The article is full of confident statements of opinion, presented as facts, so I don't think the writer intended to make that title into a question and invoke Betteridge's Law of Headlines.
Whether it's correct or not, it does seem like the issues raised in this article have been discussed many times before during the past 5 years. Is there anything really new?
