I say that the 'results' of the article are meaningless given the collection methodology.
As far as teaching languages, as far I have seen, C hasn't been up there for years, perhaps decades. Not in the US at least.
Following is the only thing I use for language popularity.

The last few days have seen some pretty spectacular images on the site and I think this one certainly qualifies. Enjoy.

Which is why MSNBC is 'news' for the stupids - Larry Elder [^] calls them MSNB-Hee-Haw - think he has it right.

There was a piece on the home service this morning and it surprised me how many songs I didn't know were his, were his.

My thoughts exactly. I remember learning "Where have all the flowers gone" at school too, a long while ago.

NO !
Pete Seeger was never a part of Peter, Paul, and Mary (Peter Yarrow is that Peter).
They did play some of his work - as did/do so many others.

A couple of years ago, the Beeb showed Bruce Springsteen's "Seeger Sessions" documentary. Featured were some 12 or so other musicians playing traditional songs as well as some of Seeger's own. It was fine music played by skilled musicians. Very enjoyable.

A group of men and women were visiting the Niagara falls. The ladies were busy talking among themselves and the guide welcomed them "I welcome you all to the Niagara Falls, the World's largest waterfalls. The sound intensity of the falls is so high that even if 20 supersonic planes pass by together, you wouldn't hear their noise."
One of the men turns to the women and says "Now ladies! Will you please keep quiet so that we can hear the Niagara Falls?"

Very true, bro. Very true.

That map's clearly defective. Looking at it you'd think that Nagy was living in the Netherlands. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
