Is IBM still consider a "giant"? And watson is dead in the water. This sounds more like an ad-article than anything else.

It's The Register. It's basically a tech focus tabloid.

Old timer sysadmins turned engineers seem to love it for nostalgia reasons, but their reporting on tech news is fairly stale and behind, just like it's peers InfoWorld, SDxCentral, DarkReading, and others.

Vendors would take these guys out to drinks and steak dinners and give them 75% of the story they need. I guess MS stopped "donating" to The Register. You'll see reporters for these rags at RSAC going to the free corporate happy hours and restaurant meetups we make general availability for tiny MSSPs and ICs whose egos we polish thru bread and circuses, but the serious tech journalists will be at the private events or having 1on1 meetings.

The actual hard hitting reporting would come from Axios, Reuters, Protocol, The Information, and a couple others.

Valleywag had a similar tone, but they actually did hard hitting reporting and had insider knowledge.
