Which means they know. Which means it's China since if it was some backwater country they'd just go ahead and say it, and if it was a western one they'd assume it was teenagers. But coming from China, it is the government doing it, so that's the only country that's taboo to name after being hacked.

- code_duck 15y agoBased solely on that quote, yes. Taking into account other indicators, such as the purported origin of other recently reported 'sophisticated attacks' on high profile targets, it doesn't seem like a stretch. To say China or their government is definitely involved isn't reasonable, but to say they'd be a strong suspect is reasonable.
