The U.S. Embassy in Paris on Wednesday Nov.21, 2012 “categorically” refuted claims in a French magazine report that the U.S. government was behind a hacking attack against computers in the French presidency earlier this year. According to L’Express, in May, hackers masquerading as Facebook “friends” of presidential palace employees duped them into giving up internal passcodes, then used them to spread a “worm” on Elysee Palace computers, including one used by then-President Nicolas Sarkozy’s chief-of-staff.
