“The Curiosity Gap”

The title is written in an intentionally vague way to entice a potential viewer into clicking it.

If the title was: “I Got a CS Degree in 3 Months for Less Than $5000 from WGU”, that’s not clickbait because it tells a more complete story.

(But telling the whole story from the title means people won’t click, so that’s why it’s written like that)
