I think there's some sort of anti-work-from-home agenda going on here. It's completely irrelevant to the story. If you were in an office you'd get exactly the same email and presumably respond to it in exactly the same way.

It's relevant to the story because so many people are currently in their first months of WFH so a headline that mentions WFH will be more interesting to them than one that doesn't. Another way to put it would be "WFH pioneer gitlab phished its own staff", nothing wrong with that.

How is it different from the same attack done while you are in the office?
