Comment only - A Business Insider article is being used to source this hook. However the use of this publication has been cautioned and I wouldn't recommend using it alone to support a hook. See the most thorough assessment [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. Though not a deal-breaker in and of itself, I would recommend finding a more reliable source to use along with or instead of the Business Insider article.

- I added a citation from the Silicon Valley Business Journal, which is a regional newspaper. That's the only place where Business Insider was cited, so should that reference be removed if its reliability is questionable? KarronFR (talk) 06:08, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

bizjournal is a good source (based on a comment made here), so that's better. EagerToddler39 (talk) 13:14, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

5x expanded, hooky enough. Based on supporting references it is generally good to go. CrossTempleJay → talk 09:36, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
