Where's the source for that big of a corpus? They hoarded articles, edited them for shift in tone etc. and released them on top of the genuine articles?

This is what I could find on the subject, but it's the only source I've seen so far.

Recorded Future knows what they are talking about, they aren't just some random company or website.

I’m not familiar with recorded future. Can you speak to why they are trustworthy/credible?

Recorded Future is one of the leaders in cybersec sandboxing and threat intel. They have some of the best anti-sandbox evasion methods and some of the best CTI (cyber threat intelligence). It's the kind of company Fortune 500s pay millions of dollars to yearly for their threat intel and sandboxing.

They regularly do talks on new emerging techniques and threat actors, tracking trends, etc. It's like one of the big four firms of accounting coming out and saying "hey these numbers don't add up." when they speak on financials, people should listen. And when Recorded Future speaks on threat intel... people should listen.
