In the words of Mr. Kruger, I'm not too worried about it

Hence the "interesting" and not "worrisome".

It is interesting.
I see they state they are planning to look for asteroids that may be a problem, but nothing is said about diverting or destroying them if the trajectory puts them hitting a populated area.

The article states that in the case of the Chelyabinsk event, all they could have done was warn residents to stay away from windows.

It is an interesting article
