It’s like a burner phone, you use it for a short time, then throw it away. Like throwaway accounts on reddit. A sockpuppet is specifically to make it look like multiple people have a certain opinion (see also: astroturfing).
So in the case of the article in question, then, this absolutely refers to a “sockpuppet” and not a “burner” because Adrian Dittmann isn’t going anywhere.
Don’t inject logic into the mental gymnasts all wanting to call it a burner anyway. It’s a lost battle. You’re absolutely right, though.
