I’m questioning the journalistic integrity of Bloomberg after the author of the article about the “Big Hack”, with China infiltrating hardware, received a promotion.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.washingtonpost.com&#x2F;opinions&#x2F;2019&#x2F;09&#x2F;17&#x2F;bloomberg-reporter-challenged-big-hack-story-gets-promoted&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.washingtonpost.com&#x2F;opinions&#x2F;2019&#x2F;09&#x2F;17&#x2F;bloomberg...</a>

Unless I&#x27;m missing something, it appears Mr. Stamos (and others) are refuting the original reporting [1][2] with details from the US CLOUD act [3]. The original reporting did not mention the CLOUD act and only mentioned an upcoming &quot;treaty&quot; or &quot;accord&quot;. While it&#x27;s a reasonable guess that these are related, I fear the Hacker News headline prematurely burns Bloomberg with unsubstantiated opinion that currently holds no more weight than the original reporting.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bloomberg.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;articles&#x2F;2019-09-28&#x2F;facebook-whatsapp-will-have-to-share-messages-with-u-k-police" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bloomberg.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;articles&#x2F;2019-09-28&#x2F;facebook-...</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thetimes.co.uk&#x2F;article&#x2F;police-can-access-suspects-facebook-and-whatsapp-messages-in-deal-with-us-q7lrfmchz" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thetimes.co.uk&#x2F;article&#x2F;police-can-access-suspect...</a><p>[3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.justice.gov&#x2F;dag&#x2F;cloudact" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.justice.gov&#x2F;dag&#x2F;cloudact</a>

Sorry for a meta comment here, but does anyone enjoy long articles in “Twitter format”? The formatting is ugly, it’s transient, and beholden to a third party’s whims. Much better would be a blog article and a link to it from Twitter.

isn&#x27;t this the company where their reporters bonuses are highly influenced by how much their stories move the markets?<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.businessinsider.com&#x2F;bloomberg-reporters-compensation-2013-12" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.businessinsider.com&#x2F;bloomberg-reporters-compensa...</a><p>in such an environment it seems obvious that they&#x27;re going to stretch stories

Why oh why are people writing long copy in a gazillion tweets instead of anouncing&#x2F;advertising the article there and then referring to a place more suited for that type of essay?

Another great opportunity to quote the &quot;Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect&quot; (coined by Michael Crichton).<p>For those who don&#x27;t know, Gell-Mann won the nobel prize in physics. He pointed out that whenever you see a news article about a topic you personally know about, the article is always shockingly inaccurate.<p>The &#x27;amnesia&#x27; part is that you immediately forget that every article you have expertise on is hilariously inaccurate, and assume that articles you read are accurate the rest of the time.<p>Lesson: news articles are written by non-experts trying to sum up some things that they do not understand, and with exceptions I am unaware of, <i>never</i> accurate<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Michael_Crichton#GellMannAmnesiaEffect" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Michael_Crichton#GellMannAmn...</a>

Forbes has a reasonably clear article on the subject, although they do themselves no credit by inserting gratuitous Twitter snark about their competitor into their article presentation: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;zakdoffman&#x2F;2019&#x2F;09&#x2F;29&#x2F;whatsapp-backdoorwill-facebook-be-forced-to-break-message-encryption-as-reported&#x2F;#732a215e1b38" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;zakdoffman&#x2F;2019&#x2F;09&#x2F;29&#x2F;whatsapp-...</a>

Whatever happened to those chips that were tweaked?
