This article presents no source for this claim, and the rest of the article is re-hashing stuff that has been well covered

This is clickbait - publications should report on facts and confirmed sources, not speculate and try to get clicks.

"according to a person familiar with the matter" is a source.
No it isn't. It's a plea from a journalist to trust that they actually have one and have the judgement to vet if the source is any good.

It's no more credible than the reporter, and I've never heard of this one.

Could the OC be sarcasm? Perhaps they forgot the /s?
Being riddled with ads also doesn't increase my trust level. This really seems like their attempt to capitalize on the crazy level of interest right now.
I mean even the first sentence of the article is factually incorrect. He did not "step down".
lol, if you were using brave browser you will see no ads
Brave Browser is privacy cope: https://digdeeper.neocities.org/articles/browsers#brave

And even if you don't use BAT, it is still an ad-driven business.

I didn't actually see the ads (I use uMatrix), but they have boxes outlining where the ads would normally go.
