I thought the same thing when I first read it but after thinking about it a little further, I disagree that was actually a shoddy part of the article at all. The writer is just is quoting some Findom ("Keke") who got it totally wrong, but who actually changed her practice around cash-meets based on that wrong understanding. That makes it a very valid comment to put into the article (even though it is factually inaccurate).

Where I think the writer was extremely shoddy and wrong was when she linked to an article about the shooting itself instead of just using the quote. There was no reason for that even if it was on a cash-meet, let alone the reality of what happened.
