The OPM hack wasn’t ‘snuffed out’ by any means - it was fairly well covered for a cyber attack of it’s era. Perhaps it wasn’t covered much in your part of Eastern Europe, but it was definitely not covered up.

The fact that some people have forgotten about it is a completely different issue.

I do watch major networks in US and the coverage on CNN and FOX amounted to 'Russia did it' or 'Russia prolly did it'. There was no meaningful coverage of impact or what the Solarwinds hack amounted to. To be frank, compared to coverage of a hurricane, it got minimal necessary coverage. I agree with parent's assertion that it was snuffed out.

I had recently just moved back from NYC at the time. I was kinda still plugged 24/7 to the US media sphere.

But it's true that I don't remember it at all, even though I worked in a field parallel to CompuSec and usually notice those events.
