I found this Veratasium documentary on the xz Jia Tan backdoor adventure quite good and surprisingly detailed:

@bagder The name that the attacker used is likely fake. Unfortunately it happens to be the name of a person I used to work with that was not related to this backdoor at all. I know that they got harassed online because of that coincidence. When possible, I think it's better to omit the name or include a note that it's likely fake.

@mlen @bagder they do say the name is fake and there was probably a full paid team behind it
