It sounds like you're encouraging the poster to include a brief summary of the article vs duplicating the title in the summary. Something like,

The [American] Consumer Finance Protection Bureau ... has proposed new rules limiting the trade between brokers and bureaux, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, putting strict restrictions on the transfer of information between the two.

Yes! Exactly. Very well put.

Providing proper context to helps us make decisions about what data we consume. Clickbait is the opposite, it's engineered to make you interested, but not satisfy the TLDR.

I won't click on a site if it has clickbaity headlines because I already know that it's light fluffy stories with no meat. I happen to already subscribe to pluralsite on my RSS feed, so I knew what the story was all about. Aren't there bots here that will visit links and provide a TL;DR summary so that I know if it's worth the click?
