Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

FUD. The story has only one source, I repeat, only one source. And that source is the website of the guy who came up with this story that we have no reason to believe to be true whatsoever.

Who cares what news sources it's on. They all show this story with only one source, so any site posting this story are just sullying their reputation until it is possible to get it confirmed from officials or the original source can answer some of the many obvious questions in what looks like a drunken rant.
