See, all young Americans are now Russian agents for Putin ;-)

Happened in Las Vegas, but reported in RT.  Why not in US sources, about an event in the US?

I'm sorry, how does the fact a kid can do it make an adult doing it less likely?

When people say stuff like "why doesn't the mainstream media cover this??!" is it because they don't know how to google or is it some cheap sensationalist ploy?

Even a cave man can do it.  Your election officials are complete idiots.  Demonstrated repeatedly with other computers in Washington ....

In my actual work, we take computer security very seriously.  But not all departments do.

MSM can't find the key to the reporter's bathroom.  They cover what the CIA/FBI tell them to cover, and say about it what they are told to say.  Cultural Marxists all the way down.

Ooo, Evil Twin was out there with his daughter; I'll have to follow up with them, I think they got back yesterday, maybe not until today.  She won't have been in the kids' hack, she's 18 now.

It's been known for years that voting machines were very hackable. That's just the way the GOP likes it, so they can keep control of elections when they need an absolute win. And they're getting desperate to keep control of the House and Senate, they can't stand the possibility of losing either. Power equals money, and they love money more than life itself.

That's not quite accurate.  They like paper ballots, too.  Especially the ones with hanging chads.  Really, either way is fine as long as unlimited amounts of money can be dumped into the system, voting districts are shaped like chinese dragons, and the electoral college (sometimes with the help of the supreme court) determines the end result.

Then why do you vote?  To enable the assholes who do this?  Do you approve of bank robbery too (though you yourself don't rob banks)?  Pay taxes, be a warmonger.  Obey laws, be a tyrant.  Why aren't you an anarchist?  (I repeat myself).

Yes their fed information to their dreams matrix style until they are 18, then allowed to enter society.

And what a society it would be, imagine it,. No more pedophiles, no more dumbing down things for children or censoring things because 'won't somebody please think of the children', no more kids versions of products.

Ah, what a world ^^
