Isn’t it that the case with most major news-report breaches? Last big one I read was “18yo hack rockstar through a nvidia firestick!!” Where in reality it isn’t the full story, the stick part was just to access internet to carry another social engineering attack anyone with kali linux can do with a usual script. The sophisticated attacks however, make to the news usually years later as it goes undetected for some time, since usually the objective is to exfiltrate data silently rather than a show up.
