Well one can definitely say that the people at Bloomberg don’t doubt their story. Is it at all possible that higher ups making statements from Apple or Amazon didn’t know? Even if so, I don’t see any way for some sides credibility to not be severely harmed by the end of this.
And Facebook now enters the fray, saying there was an attack (though doesn’t seem to be claiming they were effected by the chip in previous article?)
Edit - I read the dates of the articles wrong, and thought this was a new one this morning. It was posted alongside the original story, but main point of comment still stands so keeping it up.
