Yes, I sent them a mail and they changed it. At least in online media they can do that ... I saw only the Financial Times article in print and from cursory inspection it looked okayish. But it's amazing how people can get it so wrong - like, in the Sat.1 news I was credited as "Prof." Bert Freudenberg of "Hasso-Plattner- Institut", even though I'm positive I gave them my card which says none of this.
