This article reminds me of http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html - no concrete numbers are mentioned of the company's increased usage/customers, and the only quotes presented are from this company's CEO, who obviously have a lot to benefit from an article touting the benefits of a Swiss data center.
I wouldn't consider this particular instance malicious; it's just lazy journalism.
Journalist under pressure to churn out a quick, sanitized, topical piece meets pro-active CEO of a hosting company with a knack for PR and a pre-packaged story, quotes and all.
This article is from the same journalist who typo'd the headline of her previous piece [1]
