It's the fascist state at work, protecting private interests over public. They're not even hiding it. Where's the media and news to expose this nonsense, its been going on for a long time.
A few bits of advice:
■ Take your meds.
■ Read past the article's clickbait headline.
■ Understand that the hack just happened and they're probably still gathering & analyzing the evidence. Investigations take time.
■ If it's another government, there are probably other diplomatic concerns that need to be juggled. Diplomacy can take time.
Considering all of that, it's entirely logical and unsurprising that the FBI doesn't want details to leak out, as it could actually compromise the investigation. As @justin.m.beauvais said, this is essentially standard practice. Also, understand that the FBI doesn't have a room full of investigators just twiddling their thumbs. All of their investigators are already juggling multiple other cases, which is one reason these things tend to move a bit slower than we might like.
That said, if the NSA or somebody tries to gag FB from
ever disclosing who was behind the hack, then I'd say it's legit to complain. But, let's take a breath and see how this plays out.
BTW, I don't work for the government, but I've met and talked with FBI agents at public outreach events, years ago. They work very hard for not as much pay as you'd probably think.
