And I'm sure they are and will. By the time that post was made, the vendor had shared multiple updates about what the actual cause seemed to be, which were very plausible. An unaffiliated 3rd party stating 'maybe an attack!' when there has been no observation or information shared that even remotely points to that simply spreads FUD for no reason.
