US officials: Russian 'digital fingerprints' all over election hacks

All that means is the original code writers knew Russian. That narrows it down to probably over 100 countries where Russian speaking people live. And the original code writers may not be the hackers who deployed the code. Hacker scripts and codes are available for download and use by anyone with a computer. Our government is either retarded or lying or both.

Fake news

[sport]

Lying gets my vote.

[Hugh the Scot]

They must be talking about those “hacks” where someone released actual true information to the public and circumvented their propaganda machine.

[DoodleDawg]

We’ll see what Trump has tomorrow or Wednesday.

[odawg]

“I would LOVE to see the technical description of how a keyboard, or any input device, leaves a “digital fingerprint”.”

That is probably the kind used by the Department of Homeland Security.

[eyedigress]

What is this “code” you speak of?

Getting Podesta to click a gotcha from a porn site that ends in .ru isn’t rocket science.

[Chode]

and it took three, THREE of them to put this fake news together

[MNDude]

The hacks that let us know CNN was sharing debate questions with Hillary?

[ptsal]

Wonder if the source is Donna Brazzile?

[maxwellsmart_agent]

These blabbermouths have been spouting the same crap for weeks but without producing one scrap of evidence. Show us some evidence or shut the hell up clowns!

[thinden]

Point well made.

There never was “an election hack”.

there was a hack on DNC
There was a hack on podesta’s emails.

According to comby, there were several attempted hacks on hildabeast’s illegal unsecured servers she used to conduct classified top secret compatementalized US gummit binez.

There were several attempts by US DHS to hack state of Georgia election computers.

To say anything else is just the dems attemptto divert attention from their real crimes.

[CivilWarBrewing]

Fingerprints PUT THERE BY OUR DHS.

[MotorCityBuck]

Show it too us.

The original hacking software was written using a Cyrillic alphabet keyboard. How many hands that software went through and who eventually used it are still missing facts.

Get Assange on the line to see how he vetted the submission to him.

[Bronzewound]

So when you type code, in addition to the characters you type, information is input automatically identifying a specific hardware keyboard as well as an identifier for the system software generating cyrillic glyphs?

I've written a fair amount of code over the years and I've never noticed anything other than the code I've input.

And they've learned this now, after the FBI document was widely ridiculed and shown to be idiot bait.

I'll bet if they look really close they'll smell vodka at the point of the hacking too.

[dfwgator]

They want to plant the seed that Trump was not legitimately elected.

[Paladin2]

"Our government is either retarded or lying or both."

We need some Intelligent Agencies to look into this.

[N. Theknow]

Only hacking in this election was done by Hillary...hack, cough, hack, cough!

[Paladin2]

A bluetooth keyboard could have a MAC address.
