About the mitm. I couldn’t find in the text a report of how the mitm attack was done. How was the network reconfigured. If Russia got the password for example and used that hetzner and linode aren’t at fault.
It’s there. Hetzner helped with issuing a lets encrypt cert for the mitm proxy. The only reason they got caught was because they forgot to renew it. So while the real owner had all certs in order, the mitm proxy was serving an expired one.
