No, it’s the same incident but it was another guy called Vernon Unsworth, I think he was the head of the operation whereas the one in the article was “just” one of the guys on the team providing medical aid.
I’m also glad that the article does not mention Musk and his whole stupid PR stunt at all but instead focuses on the people actually involved.
The really scary thing is probably the malicious npm dependencies. If I think about the projects at work with and all the different packages and the hundreds of dependencies no one knows. And it’s probably even worse in really big companies like Microsoft or Facebook, they probably got thousands across their products. I hope for us all that they scan them very regularly.
