When the original article appeared, in addition to the "no comment" from Google and Xilinx and the denial by IBM, there was some deflection by commenters here along the lines of "that's ridiculous, OnePower is all about technical specs for power supplies" or something along those lines.

Can anyone point me to a link on this organization? I found one to something called the OpenPower Foundation which apparently involves IBM and has to do with data centers, but "OnePower" only produces links to consultancies, etc.

It has applied for 501c6 not-for-profit status and was incepted to enable today’s data centers to rethink their approach to technology. OpenPOWER was created to develop a broad ecosystem of members that will create innovative and winning solutions based on POWER architecture."

Ah, I see from the original article in the Intercept that it was about the OpenPower Foundation. Apparently the writers of this one couldn't even get the name of the organization correct.
