>> In my view, the democratic process should be used to prevent the US from doing "warmaking" that is not broadly supported by the public. I would agree with you on principle.

At least, not in a way that would lend itself well to the democratic process. Unfortunately.

We don't take away from the democratic process that which is hard to understand. Your concern has been raised by politicians for hundreds of years. All it would take (in the US) for the the representative congress to pass a new law which makes foreign cyber interference only permissible when passed by the the house and senate, similar to declarations of war.
