No, Virginia, the FBI was not hacked by China. Newsweek got it wrong.

On Thursday, Newsweek published what they claim is an exclusive story centered on Chinese hackers that have penetrated an untold number of FBI personnel files in a data breach with “potentially dangerous national security implications” An FBI source told Newsweek he was notified by OPM in May that his personnel file had been penetrated by hackers in the same Chinese intrusion. A single FBI agent got a letter from the OPM warning them about the breach, doesn’t mean the FBI as a whole was hacked. The OPM breach is now estimated to have impacted some 12 million people.”]
