I would suspect the point in making it public to let the world know what is going on. I think most will have a good idea who is behind this and recognize the threat it poses. It is a volley in the public opinion war.

I think it was made public to say, "Ain't gonna happen here."

But, I'm a NYer so I hope that's what the message was.

The U.S. Secret Service dismantled a network of electronic devices located throughout the New York tristate area that were used to conduct multiple telecommunications-related threats directed towards senior U.S. government officials, which represented an imminent threat to the agency’s protective operations.

While forensic examination of these devices is ongoing, early analysis indicates cellular communications between nation-state threat actors and individuals that are known to federal law enforcement.

These devices were concentrated within 35 miles of the global meeting of the United Nations General Assembly now underway in New York City.

I wonder who the 'known individuals' are.
