The alleged activity began by late 2024. On 10 Sep, Ars Technica reported that the NSA, FBI, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency accuse DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, Alibaba, MiniMax, StepFun, and Z.AI of attacking US models since at least that period. This allegation is the full picture currently available from the tracked reporting.

If factual, the impact is 0%. The report concerns US model operators and six named AI companies. The tracked signal identifies no resulting policy, product, or operational change.

Watch for technical evidence or further statements from the NSA, FBI, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and the six named companies. Details identifying the US models, attack methods, and timeline would materially sharpen the picture.
