Honestly, we can't know it was the Russians with the way the information gets to Wikileaks. We know an open WiFi connection on Amtrak helped someone get the Podesta emails, though.

So pretty much any hacker could have gotten Podesta’s emails, given the open WiFi connection? Or what is the significance of the open Wifi connection on Amtrak?

Amtrak - so that was done in the US? Somebody inside the US helped get the leaks to Wikileaks? I’m so stupid on this stuff. How would they have a France IP address using an open WiFi connection on Amtrak?

Now that's funny!

Goes to show, always assume your email will be broadcast on the evening news.

If Podestra’s emails were grabbed using an open WiFi connection on am Amtrak train, wouldn’t the perp have to be sitting on the same train running a promiscuous packet tracer?

Somehow I don’t think Amtrak has a line that goes to Russia.
