sort of an interesting case.
all the big players seem to be placing all of the blame directly on darkside, but it was colonial pipeline themselves that made the decision to shut down the pipeline that ultimately affected prices..
i can't find it now, but one of the articles on it just after it happened specified that darkside only attacked something like a simple billing/accounting server. but when they locked it down, colonial had no alternative way to bill for services rendered, so they simply shut the entire operation down until they could figure the system out again to bill. they never lost pipeline management, or distribution systems...
just funny to me how quickly history is being rewritten to re-point fingers by those with the deepest pockets...
