Are they? The authors of this story published an unverified and in corroborated story about Heartbleed a few years ago, claiming that the NSA knew about it and was exploiting it (https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2014/04/23/bloomberg-celebrates-challenged-story-on-the-nsa-and-heartbleed-bug/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2014/04/...).

I can't speak to the power management since we were using the chip in a place where power management didn't matter, but I can see those being shit too.
