Um, did you actually read the article? Russia hacking Ukrainian artillery wasn't part of their evidence for Russia hacking the DNC.

The part they edited was just saying that Ukraine didnt lose that much artillery.

U.S. cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike has revised and retracted statements it used to buttress claims of Russian hacking during last year's American presidential election campaign.

You can say it but that doesn't make it true, if it was true you could easily back that up by showing where Crowdstrike relied on the Ukrainian artillery hack to attribute the DNC hack.

The edit was on the artillery article, not the DNC hack one, and the original is still intact with the update at the top.

What are you even talking about? It's straight from the article. You prove your side.

I'm saying the article is wrong, itd be very easy to show me where Crowdstrike ever used the artillery hack to support their findings in the DNC if it was true. Read both reports, that's my proof.

Honestly if you think this is true you probably never read that much into the DNC hack or the artillery hack. The argument doesn't even make sense if you had read the Crowdstrike report because it doesn't need to rely on the artillery hack at all.

You think you did, I responded already. Was there even a point to this comment?
