I am not saying use or not use just you need all the info to make and educated choice.
One other thought is it for aggression or just pulling. Ok I know pulling is bad enongh 9 pound former frieght train owner here but we can work pulling without a head halter there are some great things that can be tried.

I just read the link you posted and I would agree with some of the points but it is a little misleading in the fact is was pulled from a dog training website. The author is trying to sell is training so of course he would not advocate using this collar. If you could solve your pulling issue with a $20 collar why would you need his course?
I would never leave this on my dog 18 hours a day. We use it for walks and that is all. I could see how their would be issue with skin irritations since it is on the dog's head very snugly and left on 18 hours a day it would cause irritation. Which brings me to the point that it is not effective if not worn snugly which in turn would allow the dog to bolt and possibly hurt himself. It sounds to me like one issue follows the next and like just about anything else for it to work properly it must be used properly. IMO
