>This might just be the frequency illusion at play, but there seem to have been a number of high-profile supply chain attacks of late in major packages.
It's real. As of the beginning of April we'd had 7 in the past 12 months vs 9 in the two decades before that: https://www.jefftk.com/p/more-and-more-extensive-supply-chai...
I think the real question is "are we just hearing about it more now or has the actual rate of attack increased?"
I looked pretty hard, with some LLM assistance, so if it was "are we just hearing about it more now" it would have to be old attacks that happened without being discovered and written up.
Rate of attack increased over the past 5 years and multiple wars and proxy wars have broken out.
