For over a year there has been widespread reporting of a surge in Chinese hacking, since the trade conflict began with the Trump Administration. Before that, the Obama Administration managed to get a brief cease fire, during which reports of Chinese hacking plunged dramatically.
So what exactly was the Obama Administration getting an agreement on? China was doing it before, stopped after a publicly acknowledged agreement with the Obama Admin, and then it's so far fetched that they'd start up again during an increasingly aggressive trade war as to be worthy of false flag considerations - I don't think so.
If it was China in this case, it's nothing more than par for the course for how they've been behaving for the last decade plus. It's an invaluable tool in their arsenal for dealing with the US in a variety of regards.
