I know that I'm repeating myself but none of that has any connection to reality for anyone remotely familiar with the devs of specific cheats and their history. Especially DMA hardware developers which are neither Russian nor Chinese. I can write a long post about this some day (especially about how local online game hacking economy/culture works, for every cultural bubble - they overlap a lot, and specific moments of drama inside them) and post it to HN, but please, stop being a part of the "psyop" you're talking about.

That wasn't my point though. My point was to offer an explanation why everyone is so quick to blame Russian and Chinese propaganda these days - I call it "inverse yell fire" or "inverse crying wolf": both countries have so often denied any involvement or responsibility in clear and serious violations that now everyone defaults to not believing their denials.
