It might be "used by hackers" but that doesn't make it hacking per se. Otherwise you muddy the terms. Phishing is exploiting human weakness. Hacking is exposing computer weakness.
It's probably a totally lost cause to get people to use the words in a meaningful way, but for those who don't subscribe to the Humpty Dumpty theory of semantics, it's important to use words correctly.
I also convince the telemarketers that I'm putting them on hold and never come back. For example, the computer repair scam? Try -
"Oh, I'm so glad you called! I have a HUGE virus problem and my computer is REALLY slow. Yeah, I'll turn my computer on for you. Just wait a few minutes, it can take 15 minutes to boot up with all those viruses. Do you mind if I put you on hold while we wait for it to finish? I'll be right back...."
Now put them on hold or mute and wait for them to hang up.
> On March 19 of this year, Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman John Podesta received an alarming email that appeared to come from Google.
This part is funny, because Google puts a giant flag on messages that claim to be from Google saying "THIS IS NOT FROM GOOGLE DO NOT GIVE OUT PERSONAL INFO" or something like that. I probably have a dozen phishing scams in the trash at any given time.
Yeah, it's also normal for average hackers to use Chinese or Russian VPNs. The actual tools used are a bit more revealing, but those were found to be widely spread on underground forums, so they don't say much.
Yes, a routine financial disclosure placing the person in two videos--one of which has her lying to the cops--on the Democrat's payroll.
And no, we don't have to take O'Keefe's word for anything: the video of her lying to the cops about why she's there is independent and has been up for months prior to this revelation.
> My Jesuit education tells me that the Saudis were going to hang that homosexual anyway. Taking their money and using it for some good is a gain.
Depends what they get for that money, doesn't it? If it helps them keep doing business with the US instead of getting called on human rights abuses, it doesn't look like a great deal.
Just to note, it looks like that may be the address of a registered agent, so the connection is less strong than it looks, though it's still an odd coincidence.
The rest of the story is just nuts, though and hard to make sense of. How many other shady porn sites that are UN partners and just what kind of cam girl leaves their 8 year old sister alone with the camera!?
Not sure what she's going to do with a few bucks from a few random Twitter followers who let her charge their credit cards on demand when they can get million dollar birthday gifts from the wonderful country of Qatar:
QATAR - Would like to see WJC "for five minutes" in NYC, to present $1 million check that Qatar promised for WJC's birthday in 2011. - Qatar would welcome our suggestions for investments in Haiti - particularly on education and health. They have allocated most of their $20 million but are happy to consider projects we suggest. I'm collecting input from CF Haiti team.
Are you actually trying to make people here on Slashdot believe that it takes a state actor to hack an old IIS server?
Are you actually telling me that none of the people worried that Trump will start a nuclear war would be willing or able to dump the contents of an old IIS server if they could find anything juicy in there?
I bet someone already DID steal it and are having trouble finding anything more interesting than the stuff he puts on Twitter. I wonder if CNN will try to tell us that looking through a Trump dump is illegal if they ever get one?
See that FEC.GOV in the URL? Can you tell me who runs this site? Yeah, it's the FEC, who you said I "don't have anything from" just now.
That data shows this lady being on the MoveOn.org payroll. You know, the person who faked all that crap at the Trump protests (which is *on video*)? And who bragged about creating violence at the rallies? But that's "nothing" right? Just because a completely independent video shows her acting and blocking the rally with a rented Lexus, creating violence, etc. Normal people would call that "corroborating evidence" of whose payroll she's on.
By all means tell me how the FEC isn't the FEC, how this woman wasn't paid by the people the FEC says she was paid by, or how she's not clearly the same person in the videos. Go look at the FEC data and see who she works for. I'm not asking you to take my word for anything, just to look at the facts in front of your eyes.
The man can't even hide his bald head. If there was anything juicy to leak, you'd think they'd have already leaked it by now because it's pretty clear that he has a server that anyone could've robbed ages ago.
If you want juicy Hillary quotes, you read her FBI files or the Podesta dump. If you want juicy Trump quotes, you can just read his damn Twitter feed.
Did you even watch the videos? They also discuss election fraud in the second one, as well as how to keep things off the record.
It's all on camera and there's corroborating evidence to tie them to the acts claimed in the video.
Should I ask how much CTR pays you? I mean, you spin things full time on every single political story as far as I can see. Go check my history, I have better things to do and I was for Obama originally. Should be able to see that assuming Slashdot hasn't completely horked all the old story comments. Guess you might not remember it with that UID, though.
> In short, the "story" here is that MoveOn was staging anti-Trump protests. OMG, you don't say? I never knew that;)
They took credit for creating violence on camera. Exactly how do you think that was faked when they have the person and voice on camera, as well as contemporaneous evidence both that they were there and that they lied to the cops? And their pay stub from the FEC.
Also, if it's fake, why did they fire one of them just the other day?
You mean her lying to the cops while blocking the road and faking being sick? Now look at the other protest she claims credit for. It's one where cops were injured.
There's actually a much less thoroughly linked or explained version of the story that beat mine. I wonder which one they'll post, if any? I guess I should've quoted the full story, though so it doesn't get burred.
Democrat Operatives Caused Violence at Trump Rallies, Framed Sanders Supporters
A new video has come out detailing how Democratic operatives created violence at Trump rallies. You may remember that they then framed Sanders supporters for those protests. This video is notable because one of the operatives, Zulema Rodriguez, can be identified in videos of the Arizona protests at 17:35 in this independent video as well as at 10:30 in the first video link. Furthermore, you look at the FEC records of disbursements to her and see that she was paid by MoveOn.org. Finally, this again can be corroborated with the Wikileaks dump, specifically this email. For those too lazy to browse all the links, you can see Zulema's appearance in both videos in this image and note that it's the same person down to the tiny mole on her chest.

Someone should send them a tip to check out Mr. Goatse as a potential accomplice.

To be fair, isn't that their job?

I can't help but note how carefully this was worded so as to evade both Dewey vs. Truman and Brexit.

Yeah, I love doing that kind of thing.

BTW, the first batch of Obama emails are out: https://wikileaks.org/podesta-...
They're boring, though. Wait for later dumps.
Also, please remember that it may be illegal to view the emails unless you have CNN authorization. You can learn a lot from CNN, like the fact that we already have congressional term limits. Someone might want to let Wikipedia know about that.

I love how your best defense of Hillary is that she's basically a Republican. I'm not here to defend either of them.

They both gave her money and they're both under Sharia law. Does that mean you don't realize how many questionable foreign sources are funding her?

Well, normally one would expect government IT to set up and archive his email, rather than having him use a secret, private email.
But it's rather interesting that you think the president should be keeping private records of their work email....

> You don't have anything from the FEC, but your claim that you do...makes you unreliable.
So, why don't we read my submission again? Here's a link to it for the lazy: https://slashdot.org/submissio...
Did you see the words the words "FEC records of disbursements to her"? Check where the link points to, it goes to here:
https://beta.fec.gov/data/disb...
See that FEC.GOV in the URL? Can you tell me who runs this site? Yeah, it's the FEC, who you said I "don't have anything from" just now.
That data shows this lady being on the MoveOn.org payroll. You know, the person who faked all that crap at the Trump protests (which is *on video*)?

TIL that you consider the FEC unreliable. Whatever you think of the video, there are plenty of corroborating sources.
You made up some nonsense with no evidence at all as a phony equivalence, but we have video here and you have nothing.
So show us your video and corroborating evidence from 3rd parties like the FEC, as we have here. Don't worry, I'll wait.
Did you even watch the videos? They also discuss election fraud in the second one, as well as how to keep things off the record.
It's all on camera and there's corroborating evidence to tie them to the acts claimed in the video.
