But orchestrated by who? Surely not Bloomberg as they'd have too much to lose.

And if you have the means to do something like this, why not do it in a more subtle way that doesn't have people asking questions 6 months later?

I'm not suggesting you're wrong and I have no clue what happened.

what kind of keyboard is that?

That's a bloomberg terminal keyboard.

Who knows? Presumably whomever wrote the original story for Bloomburg and made the photos is involved somehow but beyond that it's anyone's guess.

What is Bloomburg going to lose here? Their reputation? They're already considered something of a gossip rag for financial news. FTC action? Unlikely.

> made the photos

uh, the pictures of a tiny rice-sized chip from the story were just photo illustrations. They were not supposed to be evidence of anything. It said so in the margins.
