A supplier was hit, so they suspended domestic (i.e. Japanese) production. The title is actually a good encapsulation, and not at all click bait. Gotta celebrate these rare times when it's a legit title.

I, too, thought it was an attack on Toyota based on the title. I see where you're coming from in saying that it's not, but because many of us have stated that we were confused by the title, I don't think it's fair to say that it's "not at all" click bait. It is, at least just a teensy bit.
The dividing line should be whether the headline is misleading, rather than confusing. If everything about an article could be encapsulated in a headline there would be no need for articles.
Was there a cyberattack? Yes. Did Toyota suspend domestic factory operations after it? Also yes. I'm content.
All they had to do is add 2 words ("on supplier") but decided not too probably to make it sound like Toyota, a billion dollar company doesn't have good cyber security.
I would even feel better about adding one more word "some" as in Toyota suspends some domestic factory operations because by default it sounds like it suspends all domestic factory operations.
