That may have worn thin, nowadays. The average response here would have been described as cynical in the past. The Russia/China scapegoat had been way overused to the point where I'm cynical every time it comes up probably even where it's actually true, one time in a hundred or whatever.

Nobody blames the NSA in these circumstances, ever.

Google did it with an allied op recently. Not NSA, but as close as we're likely to hear about. https://www.technologyreview.com/2021/03/26/1021318/google-s...

Do we know for sure it was an allied operation? Everything I saw mentioned a “Western government operation” which doesn’t necessarily exclude the NSA.
