This article should have been titled: "Go channels considered harmful" :)

Thankfully it wasn't, and we were spared the ensuing discussion about how "..considered harmful" is good/bad/overused/misunderstood/causes cancer.

Instead we get the debate of whether "and you should feel bad" is appropriate in a title.

I don't believe it is, but ultimately click bait is click bait.

Eh, I don't mind click bait titles as long as the article delivers, and the title isn't too egregious in its manipulation. In this case, I think it's pretty well understood by most that the title is poking fun, since taking it truthfully is fairly ridiculous.
