WIKILEAKS REVEALS CIA FILES DESCRIBING HACKING TOOLS

This part of the country must be very similar to what they have where our troops have been since Desert Storm , I say this because every time we are gearing up to send our troops to the Middle East there is several times a day that military jets and helicopters fly up this valley and low over the hills . Do you think if when I hear one coming , I started typing words like bomb, threat, assassination, terror, al Qaeda, ISIS, I would get some good looking young guys to come knocking on my door ?

Or gals. If'n your into that.

Hang your socks over your computer. Surely no hacking tool could overcome that..!!

Speaking of spooks & socks:

Most apropos Psycoskunk at 8 sec in:

I would, but the computer I'm using is my dad's and I don't think he'd want the screen to melt.



Nah man. That show's too old for that to be me. I wouldn't have even been a kit back then.

It could be my great uncle Harvey, though. He was one of the few skunks who were still in show business at that time. All of those disputes with the old film companies really took a toll on animal entertainers as a whole and with skunks not generally liked as it is, it was a miracle that he was able to stay. Thank God he could tap-dance and he knew how to moonwalk.

FYI, the moonwalk was originally a 'skunk' dance move that uncle Harvey was nice enough to teach to a young kid named Michael... Johnson, I think? Anyways, he saw young Michael practicing his dance moves and decided to teach him in the hopes that it would catch on for the humans. And boy, did it ever!

"too old" ..... rub it in boy, rub it in!

Gals for those who prefer gals , guys for me .

Well, normally I wouldn't, but since you insist...

You're so old, you used to wait outside ABC Country for the Early Bird special... before ABC Country even existed! BOOM! Shots fired!

Having waded through the rather boring Julian Assange "press conference" regarding this dump of CIA files it was interesting to note his assertion that the USA intelligence agencies use Russian hacking tools to hack third parties and make it seem as though the attack originated in Russia. That was an interesting piece of information, especially as he coupled it with an aside about the internal problems within the USA at the moment.

Are you're implying the Deep State hacked the DNC and gave the info to WikiLeaks but let Russia take the fall?

I'm so old there's been a rumor floating around that I'm missing a rib!

What is interesting is that you would take anything that Julian Assange says as honest and truthful.

No. I think that that is highly unlikely - it's theoretically possible, but I would have thought that the intelligence agencies would have been more likely to back Hillary than attack her. But that is pure speculation. I don't think any of us have enough information to even pretend to form a reasoned view. It may well be that the USA is hacking other countries and leaving a false trail that leads to Russia. If Assange was telling the truth, then it seems possible if not probable.

I don't. "Interesting" does not imply honest or truthful. I am not in a position to know one way or the other. So far as I know the information Assange has given in his leaked documents has never been questioned in relation to its authenticity. I am not aware of anyone claiming the Podesta emails were frauds for example. As to Assange's claims about other things, that's a different matter. I am not a fan of Assange - I am somewhat ambivalent about him and Wikileaks.
