How do they know it was a Russian hacker? - Now everything is Russia's fault.

Doesn't the utility have a redundant non-internet control system? Why would anyone allow a system as critical as a power utility to be wholly under online control?
Some "journalist" said a code associated with Russian hacking. Any - hacker can make up a code.

My husband is a software engineer, "Code" is a term used to generically refer to executable software. A "code" is utterly meaningless, and shows that the author of the article is throw around terms they heard to try to sound knowledgeable without actually having a clue. Modern journalism.

Another possibility. Since Drudge and many other sites have been - getting hit with unprecedented

denial of service attacks, the Oligarchy attacks various US sites or facilities with serious hacking attacks. These attacks cause major difficulties and even make some sections of the internet go down. Many new media sites unavailable. Now they have the cover to control all information again via cable and sat MSM. That gives them free reign to blame the Russians.

Russian breach Vermont utility? On any given day, I - imagine there are hundreds or even

[ In Reply To ..]
thousands of computer-related security breaches around the world, generated by malware or spyware emanating from any number of sources. Would this breach at the utility necessarily be any more significant than all those others? And do you know how they link it to the alleged DNC hack?

I have no idea if this story is true or not.

But I do know that the press is trying to be delegitimize Trump.

All governments try to hack other governments, including the USA. Russia did not affect the outcome of the election. Our press is evil.

If the press is trying to delegitimize Trump - old and burned out

[ In Reply To ..]
it's because they know he is unfit to be president regardless of how many people voted for him. It's too bad we are going to have to wait for him to do something outrageous (dangerous, you name it) before some of his supporters realize what they have voted for.

Another crystal baller cynic. Please look into - my future and predict winning lottery numbers.

The press knows nothing other than they want status quo crooked politicians in office who will do their bidding. The press has no crystal ball. They are paid talking heads told what to say by the head of a corporation CEO who is used to buying (bribing) politician's votes to protect their interests.

Anyone who tweets about nuclear weapons is unhinged and dangerous.

seem to have no problem at all with a narcissistic madman at the controls of our nuclear armament.

What inside knowledge does the press have - What makes them credible?

[ In Reply To ..]
Why do you think you can believe the press? For instance what does Chris Wallace or Lester Holt know about the inner workings of the Trump team or Trump's relationship with his family and friends?
The press - Hail Caesar
[ In Reply To ..]
has access to a great deal of research into Donald Trump and all his past dealings. Unless you think he will have a complete change of character once he enters the White House, he is a braggart, a cheat, a narcissist egomaniac who thinks he is smarter than everyone else, has no shame about abusing women, ridiculing the disabled, etc. Claiming he is the only one who can fix things shows he wants to be emperor, not president. Hail Caesar.

Lansing Board of Water and LIght was hacked with ransomware - last year and paid up. If employees

would stop clicking on questionable sites on their work computers they would not be infected with malware. That's what Podesta from the DNC did.

So did Russia do this? What does your - husband think?

Just curious if he thinks Russia is hacking and leaving ransomware.

No. He does not. Neither do I. - NM

Through this whole Russian interference investigation (not the Trump involvement investigation) Trump has been claiming it's made up by Hillary, which all his supporters are also chanting.
