Why do you think so? First of all, there are countless "enemies" that would want to hack the US/DNC (North Korea comes to mind, who was accused of hacking Sony some time ago, as does Iran, who was itself victim of US hacking). All of those seem equally likely. Second, it's possible that there was a leak, not a hack.
- sickbeard 10y agoBut you don't see much reaction when NK or Iran gets accused of hacking.. but the mention of Russia seems to get people really up in arms about it.
- tomp 10y agoMaybe. I called it "bullshit" then just as I do now.
- empraptor 10y agoGiven that there is forensic evidence that led infosec/intelligence institutions to conclude Russian hackers did it, I would say the other options are not equally likely.
