If wired did support Lamo’s version of the story, then they had not shown any evidence of the validity of the claim regarding the dedicated server.

If they didn’t support it they gave voice to it without evidence.

The fact that they had not questioned Lamo’s statement might suggest that they ‘knew/beleived it was true’.

Therefore the assumption is, if you believe it, then its because you are seeing something you have not released.
Greenwald called them on that because what they had released didn’t show it.

If they did have the evidence then that would have been newsworthy.

Put more succinctly: “If Greenwald had not been either shamefully mistaken or lying, he would have been correct.”

Yes. I agree with you.
