I didn't say someone was fake, I said the source(s) were/are fake.

You cannot call something a "source" then link back to yourself, that isn't a source, that's just repeating. In this case the way they're citing sources is quite misleading, in particular as the articles they quote as sources don't themselves have sources.

So ultimately it isn't sourced material, it is just one person's quantitative and qualitative material.

I also find it a little suspect that you link to quora which is just a reference to Gigaom which you yourself likely have links to but fail to mention that as if you're some impartial party pointing at a useful piece of material. There's nothing wrong with referencing your own blog or site, but it is nice to let people know you're doing so rather than sending people through a quora answer as if you just randomly ran across it on Google.

The whole thing smells funny...
