From the January 8 posting:

> we would like to inform you that we have proactively reached out and spoken to the US Department of Justice, and have offered them our full cooperation in this matter

So what exactly did the NYT and WSJ get wrong here?

They were implying that jetbrains was "in" on the hack.

Wrong. From NYT

>Officials are investigating whether the company, founded by three Russian engineers in the Czech Republic with research labs in Russia, was breached and used as a pathway for hackers to insert back doors into the software of an untold number of technology companies

NYTimes has updated their article since publication, based upon my re-reading of it.

I _think_ this was not so clearly stated, or was misstated as "A Russian Company", in an earlier version.

The caption for the image at the top of the page is:

> Officials are investigating whether a Russian company, based in the Czech Republic, was a pathway for Russian hackers to insert malware that would flow to a number of technology companies.

"An obscure Russian company," I think, was one of the earliest headlines.
