Russian interference in our election? There is zero evidence for "interference". There is marginal evidence for Russian hacking "attempts".
Even that has to be taken with a grain of salt, because it is easy to embed data in a hack message to make it appear as if it originated from Russia or China or wherever. Liberals who do not understand hacking use it to explain Hillary's epic defeat. That's less painful than facing the Truth.
That's a lie, MM, and you are not a very good liar.
The intel agencies say the Russians interfered.
You have the same problem as MW: you think people will believe you.
No Jake I'm not lying. Here is a fairly high level description of just ONE WAY hackers can make attacks look like they came from somewhere else:
<<summary taken from a hacker discussion>>
If someone controls a device on a network with no egress filtering, they can send UDP packets that appear to come from anywhere, including your IP.
If they gain access to another device on your LAN, unless the LAN uses an access control system such as
IEEE 802.1X , they can impersonate any device on the LAN including yours. It's easier if your computer is off. I once found traffic (port scanning I think) coming from a device I knew was running an operating system incapable of that. It turned out the real device was off and a compromised computer was using multiple addresses (but not its own) to send malicious traffic; I identified the real device by the MAC address in the network packets. The hacker in this case was not interested in the least in the devices whose IP addresses were used; they just wanted a device to scan from that would take a while to be found and shut down.
If a hacker is able to subvert the network routing, they could disconnect your device from the internet and substitute their own instead.
If they actually compromised your device, they could of course use it directly.
