For posterity, there was a subthread about how the main submission was some kind of AI generated article. This appears to have been deleted. (Or some HN magic happened where threads are merged? I don't know.)
At any rate, the original link was
https://hackingpassion.com/fast16-pre-stuxnet-cyber-sabotage/ https://hackingpassion.com/fast16-pre-stuxnet-cyber-sabotage...
https://archive.ph/7VpWv https://archive.ph/7VpWv
Which while apparently being AI generated, does have some additional information over the other sources. (Which have apparently also been deleted from the thread.)
For example it makes a reference to this relevant paper, though it fails to cite it properly.
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1155/2024/1672269 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1155/2024/1672269

Another great source for the story is:
https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/24/fast16_sabotage_malware/ https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/24/fast16_sabotage_malwa...
And in case it changes again, the current link is:
https://www.sentinelone.com/labs/fast16-mystery-shadowbrokers-reference-reveals-high-precision-software-sabotage-5-years-before-stuxnet/ https://www.sentinelone.com/labs/fast16-mystery-shadowbroker...
Which is a write up by the actual researchers.
