If you have any copies of code this guy has written youd be able to tell by its fingerprints. People tell me that is as distinctive as a fingerprint.

NPR did the play it safe blogger route, make the headline a question, you can state anything.   I've noticed journalism going toward shitty practices like this for a while now, but you need to keep readers somehow.

Don't think so:

o Davis, the author of the New Yorker story, emails Clear.

"I like to keep a low profile," Clear replies. "I'm curious to know how you found me."

Davis eventually cuts to the chase:

Finally, I asked, "Are you Satoshi?"

He laughed, but didn't respond. There was an awkward silence.

^ awkward silence doesn't really work over email.

LOL

If you read the article, he was actually speaking with him face to face. He had emailed him to set up a meeting. So, an awkward silence at that meeting was quite possible =)
