Bloomberg could be wrong without ”lying”.
So the question is which one of Bloombergs sources are lying – Apple or the anonymous source/sources?
the anonymous source/sources are lying
reasons are
• the public statements by Apple, Amazon and Supermicro
• the lack of corroboration from any of the 30 or so affected companies and organisations
• the lack of corroboration from other sources
• the public statements by DHS, FBI, NSA and GCHQ
• the public statements of some of Bloombergs sources
• the overall implausibility of the story
• the lack of sensible explanations from Bloomberg about the above
“We have found no evidence to support [Bloomberg’s inquiries].” — Apple
“There are so many inaccuracies… they’re hard to count.” — Amazon
“We are not aware of any investigation regarding this topic.” — Supermicro
