Assuming a state-actor is a cope though. It's looking at the problem and saying "well we were fighting god himself, so really what could we have done?"
Whereas given the number of identities and time involved, the thing we really see is "it took what, 2-3 or burner email accounts and a few dozen hours over 2 years to almost hack the world?"
The entire exploit was within the scope of capability of one guy. Telling ourselves "nation-state" is pretending there isn't a really serious problem.
