Well that and what is the point if it were actually true? The NSA oops dropped a ton of cyberweapons on the streets and they would have gotten away with it, if not for those meddling kids .. kims .. well. Of course not, some other meddling kids would have wreaked havoc abusing the dangerous tech they didn't secure. Whose fault is this really? The damage was done the moment they lost control of that software. It could have been North Korea, some criminal gang, scriptkiddies, another country ... and that's bad and they'd be bad. But if you're a country that got hit by this ransomware you're not thinking "ow darn those North Koreans at it again" you know very well it was the NSA's fuckup, and if it hadn't been NK, someone else would have caused a large amount of damage using that tech in one way or another. They've been warned about the dangers of their inability to keep cyberweapons secure for years. Maybe from within the US for those who are somehow still rooting for the NSA, pointing fingers at one of the usual suspects is ... satisfying? But from outside it just looks childish. What I'm seeing is other people doing the cleanup, dealing with the aftermath, and what's the NSA doing? Fingerpointing. What does this gain anyone?
