    There was no hack, it was a download.

    Research UMBRAGE.

    I don't see where its not in our interest to have the dirty dealings exposed. Only issue I have with the whole mess is I wish the rnc was exposed also.

    I’m certainly no lawyer, but even having said that, I find the legal focus on foreign espionage activities a bit strange.

    Espionage is what foreign countries do. It’s their job. We do it, the Brits do it, the Israelis do it. Everybody does it. And, indictments against GRU officers are, in themselves, pretty hollow.

    Unless . . .

    This is a grand connect the dots deal (which is pretty much what an investigation is!)

    Therefore, the next step will be connecting colluders/conspirators, whatever, to the Russians now indicted. And then identifying if crimes were committed.

    If these are the final indictments, this whole ordeal will be a nothing burger. If more follow, and depending on who is indicted, then maybe not.

    Two bits of advice for the partisans:
    1) it’s too early to celebrate or to become despondent, and
    2) It’s really important to watch/read from multiple sources from across the philosophical spectrum. Locking in to either MSNBC, Fox News, or CNN will give you a greatly distorted perspective.

    Yeah now they can disguise their signature to make it look like whomever they wish. So good luck figuring that out.

    "The DNC data was copied onto a storage device at a speed that far exceeds an Internet capability for a remote hack. Of equal importance, the forensics show that the copying was performed on the East coast of the U.S. The CIA's Remote Branches Division UMBRAGE Group collects and maintains a substantial library of attack techniques ‘stolen’ from malware produced in other states including the Russian Federation....Pakistani Nationals with zero security clearance were in charge of the DNC cyber security."

    Kim Dotcom is quite a guy.

    Yeah I remember reading that which means almost certainly an inside leak.
