tl;dr: author believes “No”.

Betteridge’s Law still applies.



Copied from Wikipedia because I didn’t know:

Betteridge's law of headlines is an adage that states: "Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no." It is named after Ian Betteridge, a British technology journalist, although the principle is much older. As with similar "laws" (e.g., Murphy's law), it is intended to be humorous rather than the literal truth.


Not sure why the downvotes; merely pointing out that Betteridge’s Law is once again proven out.
