Well I don't really care about what the author says, But to say Facebook and Google are NOT technology companies is just ridiculous to say the least especially when the former is into VR lately and the latter is quite popular for it's own OS (android).

Now, next the author might try to update the story to include the quote "As dumb as it might sound but I dare say that Microsoft too is NOT a technology company since they make hardwares and operating system which of course can't be categorized under Tech category" . (sarcasm trolls hush! ...)

*sigh* .. What has this world come to with people offering opinions like these .... *sigh*

If you dont care about what the author says then it is sort of a moot point to complain solely about the title. In fact the author specifically addresses the points you have made. For instance General Electric delves into technology but no one considers them a tech company they a multi-national conglomerate. At this point with the diversification that Facebook and Google has they too could be considered conglomerates instead of solely as a tech company.

Well generally a Title is considered a clickbait and not the article itself. Considering this I got a valid point here.

And whatever the Author says to cover up this clickbait title is quite irrelevant to our whole discussion.
