About Those So-Called ‘Russian’ Hackers…

About Those So-Called ‘Russian’ Hackers… – The Burning Platform





Guest Post by Karl Denninger
Let’s focus just for a minute on the oft-repeated claim that the US Government’s “agencies” have “declared” that Russia is behind the Podesta (and other) Wikileaks releases — that is, they stole the data.
There’s no evidence to support that which passes even the most-rudimentary sniff test.
You have one guy who’s made that claim in the US — Clapper.  The same Clapper who knowingly lied before Congress in the past.  Yes, that Clapper.
Now it is certainly true that Russia is likely capable of such a hack.  Then again the hack itself, as I’ve pointed out, isn’t especially surprising given that it appears many of these “email accounts” have been sitting on public cloud-provided email services.
