he was using a singapore VPN and had access to multiple sockpuppets. we know literally nothing else about them and anything you've heard to the contrary is baseless rumor.
leading theory is that it was a state-sponsored actor, but frankly even that much is speculation and which state is still way up in the air.
It seems I'm out of the loop, how do we know about hongkong and singapore?
we know about the singapore VPN because they connected to IRC on libera chat with it. the only reason I can think people would believe they're from hong kong is because of the pseudonym they used, but it's not like that proves anything.
