Sorry if I trigger anyone's paranoia, but 1. who told you that it's not a state-backed attack? 2. and if 1 is true, who told it, it's not Russia staying behind it?

and if 2 is true, the KGB university alumni Kaspersky definitely is related to it.

And it's relevant to the article because?

I suppose they say that because the article has been written by Kaspersky, and it's hosted on a server under their control?

Even let's go all the way down and say the backdoor was directly written by Kaspersky themselves, does it change the value of the content (which is purely technical analysis) anyhow?

I suppose parent comment don't discuss the quality of the article but the theoretical danger of connecting to a server under Kaspersky control.
