This is not true, the traffic for the previous github incident with the great cannon was co located[0] with the great firewall (which is indisputably under the control of the chinese government).

Colocated with the Great Firewall is an entirely different claim, and not one that ATT makes. Your citizenlab article provides a possible case for it, but that's a different discussion.

And even then, it could be some third party cache poisoning attack, etc. The citizenlab evidence would look exactly the same.

This is likely China, as I said, but let's not pretend that we know more than we do.

Why does it matter whether ATT made the claim?
