Yes, which makes me wonder why they're trying so hard to push the "Russians are doing it" narrative. Although I have no more evidence than do they, it feels rather like a diversion.
- wcummings 10y agoCan't let people think you aren't capable of attributing attacks.
- joshstrange 10y agoYeah, this argument always falls pretty flat with me, it feels like the gov just traces IP's as far back as they have to make their case. "The attack came from an owned box in the USA that we can trace was connected to from an owned box in France that we can trace to an owned box in Russia, I guess the Russians did it" .... Not to mention it shouldn't be terribly difficult to hide your tracks connecting to an owned box meaning that any hacker worth their salt can make an attack look like it's coming from wherever they want.
