People don't read footnotes. If you start out with a list of "OMG warning signs" and then add an "oh, never mind" disclaimer below it, then the average paranoid parent isn't even going to read beyond the last bulletpoint before confronting their kid.

This article is extremely dangerous.

EDIT: And when I say "footnote", I mean that more generically, not just with it being literally below the content. People don't read linearly, and will almost certainly read the bulletpoints before they read the text around it.
