Well.. what's the possibility that this "leak" and "source code" is something coming from russia/kaspersky to pretend it's a CIA cover up, in order to cover themselves up?

I mean... personally i really don't care. But for people like you and others who seem to care so much... is it a realistic possibility ?

Unlikely, core metrics will put a reasonable lie into this. we've had a decent number of samples. Unless CIA actually hired Russians just for this tool. Which would be extra ironic Source code carries a fingerprint of the team who worked on it.
