re: Anybody remember when RUssia hacked the election?

you keep ignoring that the only report based on actual data or hardware was made by Crowdstrike.

All other reports flow from that initial report.

That initial report was downgraded, by Crowdstrike, from MID to LOW confidence

So last night I said it was REASONABLE that they were involved in the hacking of the left during the campaign. I didn't argue it certain, likely, or even more likely than not--just REASONABLE.

And I supported this reasonableness with:

1. DNI report
2. Article highlighting Russia has a top country for hacking, dating back multiple years
3. A bunch of other evidence (Wikileaks connections, Russian history, etc.).

And now you are even acknowledging another piece of evidence, even if it's tentative at best.

YET, with all of that information you have audacity to sit there and insult people because they think Russia was involved, not even that, think that Russia a reasonable suspect?

YET, you have provided any evidence to indicate why that it is not reasonable, except for insults.

I may be a hack, but you have no room to talk.

You've been bought, trained and made to think just how the US government wanted you to. No one respects a man that can't think for himself.

God that's got to suck..being the property of the US government.

Yikes

Yeah, it must suck being me.

Without reading the entire thread, let's play a little game, buckeye.

Let's assume the Russians did leak emails like you said in the beginning of this thread.

OK.

Have the dems claimed any of the information released to be untrue?

---

No. And since it was available, I don't think one should be expected to ignore it. But that's not what we are discussing here.

So the Russians did what our media should have been doing. I am ok with that.

---

I don't expect our media to illegally TAKE information. If it's provided to them, fine. So I'm not sure what you mean by "what they should have been doing."

Of course, just like the illegal leaks. I don't think the media should be illegally accessing the information, but I don't expect them to ignore it when it's given to them.

I am ok with that.

Of course you are. Most of you are.

Bump.

A successful phish is considered hacking.

No, that's social engineering.

You can phish over the phone, without using a computer.

Phishing is hacking? Come on, man.

You are trying to conflate the terms to strain your stance into an area of honesty. Just stop

You don't need to have any computer skills to be a phisher. Just need to be a good liar.
