They rewarded a person who has done a lot for Ubuntu with the tools and thanks he deserves! That’s terrible! How can they do such a bad thing!

The rest is correct.

It is a pure concentrate of factual errors and sensationalism. Moreso than usual.

Next time ask around before writing such stuff.

Daniel is staff, indeed. So am I (just in case!).

Wow, some minimal research would confirm all that instead of guessing!

Ubuntu Members have @ubuntu.com (whether developers or not).

If you look at his Launchpad page, you’ll notice he has an «@canonical.com» address (in case this is what caused you confusion, «@ubuntu.com» addresses are available for all Ubuntu Members, of which many are from the community: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership).

I better ask for all the salary they owe me since… well, since I’ve become one without being notified.
