It is utterly amazing to me how we view the Chinese people as such an evil "other".
I'd love to know how they determined that this was Chinese hackers, which doesn't appear in the Trusted Sec report, and from my amateur eyes would seem near impossible to determine with certainty. But if it was the case, why the first thought is that it was an action on behalf of the government instead of a couple Chinese kids messing about. Count the "Chinese hackers" in the article.
If the vulnerability was public at the beginning of April, how were there attacks made in June?
Hard to believe they actually asked the embassy if they knew about the attack. The embassy's reaction was understandable.
