What i read [and corrected] from the article :
"The hacking ~~campaign~~ [group], nicknamed [ by Microsoft ] Salt Typhoon ~~by Microsoft~~,
[ this actual campaign of attacks ] is one of the largest intelligence compromises in U.S. history, and not yet fully remediated. Officials in a press call Tuesday [ 2024-12-3 ] refused to set a timetable for declaring the country’s telecommunications systems free of interlopers. Officials had previously told NBC News that China hacked AT&T, Verizon and Lumen Technologies to spy on customers."
Thanks I thought from reading this maybe Salt Typhoon was the codename for the next version of windows.
No, that's Salty AI
