Especially considering this introduced a 500ms waiting time. But surely this was quite a risky time investment, 2 years. How likely is it that this was the only attempt if this was done by a group? (And maybe there were failed attempts after trying to take over maintenance of other packages?) Maybe really a very well-funded cybercrime group that can afford such moonshot endeavours or a state group that doesn't completely know yet what it's doing or isn't that well equipped (anymore?). I'm definitely curious about analysis of attribution
