I think this is important to keep in mind, media will attribute back to the ‘enemy of the day’ but the actual evidence is scant.

the recent Ministry of Defence, UK hack was blamed on China, but if you actually dig into it that’s just a hypothesis and it really could have been anyone. If this was happening straight after 9/11 we’d be blaming terrorists, etc.

Anytime states point a boogeyman, there must be a power grab lurking.
