    The title is a bit misleading and these should be pointed out before reading...

    1. The article is talking about "Third-Party" batteries and not what is actually included with all MacBook Pro's.

    So, to those who own a MacBook Pro and don't own Third-Party batteries, you're okay.

    2. For those who have purchased a Third-Party battery dated after June 2012, you should be okay as well.

    The article is simply alarming those who have purchased a Third-Party battery within' this time frame: September 2008 and June of 2012
