The submission title is editorialized (easy karma bait), the tweet doesn't say anything like that, not even mentioning xz or the word trust. And also it's an entirely different type of security incident.

You can make the first sentence of the tweet fit the HN submission word limit

"CISA and review board torches Microsoft response about the 2023 compromise"

Yes, the submitted title broke the site guidelines badly. From https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html: "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize."

Submitters: If you want to say what you think is important about an article, that's fine, but do it by adding a comment to the thread. Then your view will be on a level playing field with everyone else's: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so...

It's interesting article though, isn't there a way to get it to reflect that instead of flagging it into the void?
I have submitted the report here:

Agreed, and flagged.

I'm not sure why there's a sudden surge of xz ragebait submissions.

Because karma number go up, and for some people that's reason enough.
