My main issue with this blog post is that rather than properly addressing concerns, they make fun of them.

It's not a rootkit, journalists just spread misinformation for clicks

Why is it not a rootkit, then??

I guess the difference is in whether or not the victim was complicit with installing spyware in the kernel.

If that's the distinction they're going with, they don't actually know what a rootkit is and have no business declaring something is or isn't one
