Wasn't the NSA spying on the whole Internet or something? Are you telling me the NSA saw no evidence of Russia hacking the DNC servers? They wouldn't necessarily have to reveal their "methods" that it was the Russians if it was the NSA catching them and not some Kremlin CIA spy.
But who knows, maybe they are too busy spying on hundreds of millions of Regular Joes to watch out for all of the Russian attacks.
- untog 10y agoHaven't the NSA already said they believe it was the Russians? As you suggest, they would be the ones to know.

- Kadin 10y agoThe NSA doesn't, in general, publicly announce anything. They exist to supply analysis to other branches of government, and only very rarely to the public directly. So the absence of commentary from them in public doesn't indicate that they haven't drawn conclusions and passed them along.
