I can't believe I have to defend reddit for once.

This "article," if you can call it that, might as well have just been a tweet. There is 0 other relevant information like what the patents actually are.

It basically is a tweet. It's a quick post, which is designed for The Verge writers to write a quick thought or link to a story using a website they control instead of posting it on Elon's website.

Right but then why would I bother going to the verge anymore, when they link to a pay walled website? Why not go directly to that website? I am by no means advocating Twitter, but a tweet makes sense because it might reach an audience it normally wouldn't.
