January 1, 20179 yr There is a report in today's paper that a New England power plant has found malware on one of their computers linked to Russian hackers. If true, does this become a bigger issue?
January 1, 20179 yr Personal laptop not connected to the power grid or the power plant is the reports I heard.
January 1, 20179 yr Author I don't know if it is a big deal yet. Neither does anyone else posting on here. I will say it one more time because the first few times don't seem to be sinking in...if the ONLY thing the Russians did was conduct a very basic phishing attack on Podesta's email, then we should be mad at (or laughing at, depending on your perspective), the DNC for being so stupid and incompetent, not the Russians. You and I both know that China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, France, England, the U.S., etc. ALL do far worse than a SIMPLE PHISHING attack every hour of every day. Now if the Russians did more that we have not heard of yet, I want to know and will react accordingly. However, the timing of the uproar and lack of specifics reek of politics to me...simply deflecting from the corruption exposed on both the DNC and the MSM. Keep screaming THE RUSSIANS HACKED over and over and over and over and over again to take our minds off the corruption. I look forward to midweek. :lol2:
January 1, 20179 yr :lol2: You are less than a month away from a great America. Apparently one aligned with Putin/Russia definitely better than Obama. Obama and his cronies gave Iran access to how much cash? You can't have it both ways. Do you prefer negotiation and appeasement as Obama did with Iran or tough talk against an opponent? From my perspective Trump has done nothing different in his stance with Russia the Obama did in his deal with Iran, that I still think will bite us soon.

Do you believe Iran and Russia are equal adversaries?
January 1, 20179 yr Do you believe Iran and Russia are equal adversaries? No, honestly I think Iran is more dangerous.
January 2, 20179 yr No, honestly I think Iran is more dangerous. Going to disagree with you there. Iran's force projection capabilities are nothing compared to Russia.
January 2, 20179 yr Russia is smart enough to realize that it's mutual suicide if they unleash their nukes. Iran doesn't have nukes, yet. I don't believe that the deal Obama made will prevent them from getting them. Those guys are 100% nut jobs and so delusional that I can see them actually believe they could use nukes and there be no repercussions to them. My assessment of who I fear more is based solely on who I believe is more likely to use nukes if available and that's Iran, no question in my mind. In the meantime the Obama Administration has just given the regime in Iran huge funding that they can and will do all kinds of evil with. So yes at this particular point in history I fear Iran more then Russia.

They don't have to get them here to wreck havoc on the world. And unlike Russia those guys are crazy enough to use them
January 3, 20179 yr Now there are questions about the veracity of the report that Russia hacked the Vermont utility.
