Technical Analysis

Based on comments at this thread: https://twitter.com/ShaneHuntley/status/1402320071276433408 we should expect to see a full writeup around July 9th or so from the Google threat assessment team. Seems they will be keeping things close to the vest until then to allow people to patch in the meantime.
