Indeed, it's common nowadays to label things (ideas, people, etc.) in order to frame them in a way that's convenient to the labeler and helps him advance his agenda. I think given the global situation, some people become more sensitive to this kind of tactic (which is often used), while others have shown just how susceptible they are to it.

The author of the software didn't attack anything. He just pushed some code into a place he had legitimate control of.

Some irresponsible (see what I did?) developers downloaded and executed this code without checking, and as a result their stuff broke.
