It's equally unfathomable to me that there are people who take the Russia/DNC story as fact, even when no concrete evidence has been presented. That WaPo tries to throw fuel on the fire with by exaggerating a small morsel of truth (see: "RUSSIA HACKS U.S. POWER GRID") is even more concerning.


What would you need to see to believe it happened? Be as specific as you can.


Source please

edit: Since you edited your original post - I would want to see the same report that Obama saw, the one that led his administration to go so far as saying Putin was "personally involved" in orchestrating the attack. Redact sensitive info/sources as necessary.

Anything less makes it ludicrous to accuse a nuclear superpower of cyber warfare.


I asked what specific piece of evidence is missing.


You did, after you edited the original post ("There is concrete evidence.")

Have you even looked at the "evidence" out there so far? It's entirely circumstantial evidence put out by third party info sec groups.


Can you specifically name the content you would have to see in a given government report that would convince you this event took place?

You are asking for evidence of a lack of evidence. The onus is on you here - it can't be the other way around.


The onus is on me to figure out what you would need to believe this was Russia?


Okay, and how would you like the US government to share that information with you?
