    Russia planned cyber attack on the Tokyo Olympics

    Russia planned cyber-attack on Tokyo Olympics, says UK | World news | The Guardian

    Referring to a previous attack on the Winter Olympics:

    "The US assistant attorney general John Demers said the “Olympic Destroyer” attack, in revenge for a doping investigation of the Russian Olympic team, “combined the emotional maturity of a petulant child with the resources of a nation state”

    Total unsubstantiated NONSENSE. Putin and Abe had a really close relationship. There is zero reason for Russia to take a cheap attack on Japan of all nations.

    Because the article was clearly too long for your brain to read and comprehend, I'll help you out:

    "Many previous ascribed Russian cyber-attacks have been against the state institutions of Moscow’s political opponents, but some cyber-activity has been directed at the agencies conducting inquiries into Russian sports doping.

    The evidence is the first indication that Russia was prepared to go as far as to disrupt the summer Games, from which all Russian competitors had been excluded because of persistent state-sponsored doping offences."

    The "left" hates Russia. The "Right" hates China. Everything is always one of them. Need a new headline? Say Russia did something, and rely on the populations complete idiocy to know the difference between substantiated and bullshit.

    Hal - "Many previous ascribed" is not substantiated. Using the word "evidence" is not evidence in itself. Allowing the alleged Spook agencies to say "we have evidence" without needing to produce it, shows the naivety of the population as a whole. Why should this evidence be secret from the people who employ them - that would be us, not the sodding bureaucrats that we employ to manage infrastructure on our behalf but seem to think that gives them POWER over us.

    one of the world’s largest hacking operations, an effort run by Russian-speaking cybercriminals that officials feared could disrupt the presidential election in three weeks.

    But as soon as Microsoft began dismantling the operations last week, seeking to cripple a network of infected computers known as TrickBot that has been used to paralyze computer systems with ransomware attacks, it discovered that someone else was trying to do the same thing.

    In a separate but parallel effort — which was apparently not coordinated with Microsoft — U.S. Cyber Command, the military cousin to the National Security Agency, had already started hacking TrickBot’s command and control servers around the world late last month, according to two government officials

    HI Balders. Why are you not in Jail?

    Anyway, you seem to have issues with what substantiated means.
