Rolls eyes
Russians had NOTHING to do with election fixing That is jsut an excuse from the loser Hilary as she blames everyone and everything apart from herself for losing.

Even we in the UK (52%) of us despise the woman-in her view we are the Deplorables' as we voted for Brexit next she will blame Alien conspiracies for her losing the next election-Hilary move on you lost get over it-lead a happy life.

The Guardian is great!

No it looks like Russia to me and all those following this story, Russia propaganda has been successful in the US. We now have 1/3 of our population believing Hillary is a child sex slave trader. These are the people that helped Trump identify targeted segments of the market. Russia recently hacked our military computers and followed up with an invasion of our electrical grid and water . We remain debating who is behind this and yet our elections are just around the corner

Right Now... I am More Concerned with the Bombs in Austin Texas than what russian intelligence been doing with our data. That is Old News as far I am concerned. All I am saying is... Fucking Again... FOR TWENTY YEARS ALL I DID WAS TRAIN TO FIGHT THE RUSSIANS, I retired and moved to DC/Maryland... and what did I found? DC/Maryland Full of russians or former russians. My first GF a former russian... my next one american in partnership with 2 former russian couples. What are former russians? Natives of the Ukraine or Belarus for example. When you are a member of an empire your enemy today will be your friend tomorrow and your friend today will be your enemy tomorrow. At the american pace of learning the truth... I will be telling my grandchildren that crap in a decade or two from now.

All you have to do is read about how the Russian Troll Farms actually worked. Your ignorance is no excuse.

Excellent and informative. Also enraging. Thanks.

I read about this today. ”if you want to fundamentally shape a society you first have to break it.” The thing we all forget is that technology has several sides. The most immediate side is that it allows more people to live within a specific resource base. We all know inventions can be used for good and for evil. The militaries of the world prove that all the time. The digital technology, to me, is like nuclear energy. It can do a lot of good but it can destroy the whole world. Way too many people put their whole lives in their cell phones, Facebook accounts, Twitter, digital games and on and wouldn’t have an idea what to do if the digital media disappeared. I am glad I live on an island and minimize my time with this ‘new technology’. It’s like credit cards; many of us learned to handle money before credit cards and do very well not depending on them. Many are in a debt that they wouldn’t be because of credit cards. The formula for population Impact is I (impact) = P (population) X A (activity) X T (technology).

Skepticism is the key and a lack thereof is probably why the religious support the things they do.

It should also be noted the West is just as guilty as other countries. We have the better technology and the most talent. It could come from anywhere and anyone, even here on this site. Should we be just skeptical of things we are against or should critical thinking involve our own notions?

Your computer and cell phone is a personal data collection tool. There are companies which collect everything you see and do on-line and use it to manipulate your buying habits and opinions.

Russians are as adept at manipulation as any authoritarian government is, pick a boogie man that looks different from your targeted audience and blame that boogie man for all their problems, and you have the formula that has empowered totalitarians for millennia.

Nothing in that article indicates that the information about Russian interference compiled by every U.S. intelligence agency is wrong.

If you really want to know what country had historically waged the most effective espionage campaign against us, it's Israel.

I thought "They Went to Jared"

I think you are right.

Think trump's henchmen in IT were responsible for editing FB.

I suppose they browse Fox News and Breitbart for ideas on how best to destroy the United States and go from there.

"The Russian Conspiricy" were con artists trying to make an easy buck. They just got tagged for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The conspiracy is smoke and mirrors, something to whip up fear by the gun lobby to sell more guns.
