Chinese going in and copying things is likely a multibillion dollar industry, so to say “they’re not doing anything” is not exactly true. The more they change, the more likely they’d be revealed, so it’d be killing the goose that lays the golden egg of corporate espionage. There’s not a similar financial payoff to…

Bank is a good analogy. If money gets moved around a bank, there’s a trail and transfers and changes can be audited. If there were questions, and an investigation or lawsuit was imminent, and the servers were wiped by the bank manager before the audit was completed, you’d think the bank managers were either complicit…

Seems to be from here: https://gcn.com/articles/2018/02/20/voting-machine-funding.aspx

This has been mentioned to me four times.  See previous responses.

They had access to voter registration lists and other info but not the votes themselves.

So, they have access to our voting systems, they may or may not have changed votes, we’re not significantly changing SOP, and everything about this is fine?  CIA, NSA, FBI say Russians were advocating for Trump. They might not have had to change votes last time around.  We should rely on the assurance that maybe they…

Yeah, caught that, and someone else used that as a reason to dismiss the article. We’re the products of our upbringing, and for some of us, that’s what Russians were known as for the majority of our lives. Ad hominem attack on an irrelevant detail.

Yes. Again, in my mind, there’s not clear evidence that the elections was effected. But, given that this has been an issue for nearly two decades, it’s way past time to close loopholes in security. The fact that nothing has been done, despite recent reports that the Russians were actively attempting to undermine our…

It’s sloppy to call the modern Russians Soviets, but not really germane. 

The US did it to Iranian computers. It’s likely easier for Republicans or even Russians to get access to voting machines in Georgia than it’d be for the US intelligence getting access to nuclear sites in Iran. While it’s certainly hard, it’s not impossible, and I would be very surprised if the Russians were stopped by…

Citation for your refutation? It’s shocking to think this could have happened, but times have been interesting since 2016. It’s kind of weird that Kemp, who publicly likes all manner of protecting borders and militarism, doesn’t think that the election system warrants defending.

At least they weren’t gun grabbers like Reagan.  

I apologize if you saw my question as hostile. Really didn’t mean to trigger your delicate sensibilities. But to reiterate, so the immigration status of a random pizza delivery guy was a theoretical crime that you found concerning enough to pause you in your pursuit of murine relations, but you don’t care who’s…

Very sorry to interrupt you in the middle of a very important gerbil fucking session, but I’m curious as to why people who are sticklers for legality in some instances support this guy:

I think this article misses the point. Ignoring means he’s unaware of it. I would think he may well be aware he’s making the immigration problem worse. Yes, there may be more MS-13 members, doing more crimes, and that’s a vote-getter that’ll give him more excuses to act in a draconian fashion.

Not from Russia, apparently, he thinks leaving the election system exposed to hacking makes Georgia great again:    https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/trump-election-hacking-and-the-georgia-governors-race

That fucking bust of MLK story is still the only example they have of the media getting thing wrong.  

I wish she had asked him to name one of those individuals.
