I think people on HN are mostly North Americans, they are generally very ignorant of the workings outside their own suburbs/city (we live in the best part of the world they say!) So there is this bias towards other 3rd world countries. To many they are still a backwards, technologically illiterate countries yet somehow North Korea routinely dominates other wealthier nations in cyber security. India's intelligence agency has always been competing with Pakistani, very much like the Iranian security forces & Israeli intelligence, these guys have been fighting battles the rest of the world will never hear about, so its foolish to underestimate their capabilities like we do on HN.
