Dont forget hundreds of thousands of other people and companies also use the word. As for the community, if you have been to the Network section on this website, pfsense, [H]ardforum, etc etc then you will see that what Ubiquiti says is completely true. The advertising for their products is done extensively by the userbase.
The article is nothing more than a hit piece meant to stir up fear and try to hurt Ubiquiti.
Actually, what this guy is doing is fraud itself. He is known to be a "short seller" and that is exactly what he is doing with Ubiquiti stock. And now puts this hit piece out to try and cause a panic and plummet the stock price so he can make a ton of money.
They typically make wireless access points and good routers, but they have very little 10 gigabit stuff because they focus mainly on the very cheap to produce stuff that they can sell for a good bit of money. (Actually, something the article tries to discredit as being not true but really is exactly the case). Anyway, they have a just released product that was in beta for the past 6 months that you may be interested in: It is a top of the line router that blows away nearly everything on the market and competes with the extremely high end of Cisco and Juniper. It is a 16 core, 16GB RAM router with all 10 gigabit SFP+ network ports. It sells for $1600 but for the power it is actually a great deal. Those who were lucky enough to snag one from their beta store got a steal, it was being sold for $500 earlier this year for the beta version
