This is like seeing a food poisoning outbreak at a fast food restaurant and concluding that it must be CIA/FSB/Mossad bogeymen trying a bioweapon. These breaches are things like not validating authentication tokens (at all, not just correctly) and that would be a big drop in professionalism from what we’ve seen from nation-state level attacks:

Hanlon's razor, paradoxically, is the perfect cover for surreptitious malice. We've already got a perfectly reasonable razor telling people not to assume malice, after all.

And to be clear, let's not forget that the US government did intentionally and secretly conduct surreptitious biological warfare tests against entire US cities that deliberately inflicted disease upon and killed American citizens. There was an entire formal program that spanned decades - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_biological_weapo...

Of course, the US government doesn't have any secret programs anymore and never lies to us, so everyone can rest easy knowing nothing like this could ever happen again.
