No, Russian interference allegations were confirmed through other means, mainly human intelligence and other types of intercepts.
The dutch even filmed the meddling operations through GRU hacked security camera.
- mtgp1000 6y agoI don't see how the Dutch story is relevant, if it's the one I looked up, and it sounds therefore like there is at best circumstantial evidence. Even motive isn't very reliable because all kinds of people are out to do things like influence the elections.
- alwayseasy 6y agoIt is intelligence, not "at best circumstantial evidence". And no, "all kinds of people" did not have the same explicit motives highlighted by the Muller Report, the Senate Committee, or 18 US intelligence agencies showed. I guess spitballing theories on hn is always more accurate than thousands of analysts sharing this analysis in Western countries.

- blaser-waffle 6y agoAn account from 3 days ago alleges that the CIA is faking Russian hacking info. Remember folks: there are disinformation campaigns on HN too. Maybe they're right, but it's a little suspicious, no?
