The anger and racism in the slashdot thread is hilarious.

Funnily enough, USA accuses DPRK of stealing cryptos all the time, and for huge sums. Question, it is real? The answer is, assuming the thefts are real and are not just one more slander story, if DPRK can do it, CIA can do it even easier (then blame DPRK because why not, nobody can confirm it anyway). And the recent, hugest theft was strangely coinciding in time with CIA losing one of the longstanding sources of their black money, afghan opium trade.

About tether, it means they can control it even easier.
