University duo thought it would be cool to sneak bad code into Linux as an experiment. Of course, it absolutely backfired

Re: Qiushi Wu [ ... ] and Kangjie Lu, assistant professor at the school

Funny, I was also waiting for someone to blow that particular horn. It was bound to happen, for reasons that must be clear to you, considering you're the one who did it.

And you can keep your contempt and hints and whatever else makes you sleep well and comfortably smug at night. Yet, a mess such as the one we are witnessing would not be sponsored by any intelligence agency: too noisy, self-defeating as an intrusion mechanism, AND wakes up your enemy. Lose, lose, lose.

I do not follow the mantra of "not attributing to malice...", but it is apt in this case.

Now, if you have a (war) drum to bang, and reason need not apply, do carry on.
