Whether it's true or not depends on your point of view and who (or what) you choose to believe.

 

But nothing suprises me anymore. It's all been done before, in one form or another.

2015 Mar. - Kaspersky Lab Russian spy link
2015 Aug. - Russian antivirus firm (Kaspersky lab) faked malware to harm rivals


Whether it's true or not, Kaspersky Lab's reputation is damaged.
Interesting point is that media hits Kaspersky lab without solid evidence
Of course there is no solid evidence this time again.

I could see two facts. Kaspersky Lab is the Russian antivirus firm and Kaspersky lab has published government grade malware reports.
I hope that media provides clear and solid evidence first.
