Are you saying the cease and desist is potentially fabricated?

That seems unlikely given if that were true, we would expect a public response from Palo Alto to that effect?

That isn’t a ploy that would work very long and the backlash and damaged reputation would be significant if that occurred.

No, not fabricated at all. I'm suggesting that they had to know that what they were doing would provoke a response from PAN. And as soon as it did, a nice "underdog" blog post was ready to go.
