How is that article misleading for you? It is about car dealership in Japan who accept
BTC as a means of payment. For start they offer this service in some of stores, after test period they maybe include this service in all locations.
Since this is 8+ month old news, maybe today situation is much different and there is more then 24 locations.
Yes, it is just as misleading as the other news...
I go to buy a BMW with coins, they tell me that only that dealer is accepting coins not them.
I go in Tokyo to that dealership that says it is accepting coins, they say, sorry only the branch is Kyoto is accepting.
I won a free soda can that is redeemable in any store but when I try to get a free one only some of the stores are accepting the winning cap and they are all located on the other side of the town.
All those are examples of misleading the customer.
You don't publish an article with "The x dealership is accepting
BTC", you must say from the title "In some locations, the x dealership is accepting
BTC ".
, they have such information on their websites or you can call them on phone/send e-mail and just ask. The way you are described certainly can be a waste of time, and in article is clearly stated :
As an experiment, the dealership chain is introducing a Bitcoin payment service in 24 of its stores.
Customer can be misled only if he refuse to read with understanding, otherwise I do not see any problem here/but I guess problem is that people read only headlines and they can be misleading sometimes.
