If all do it we have to be better, or worse. Depends on p.o.v.

"One document had last been modified by a Russian user named Roshka Georgiy Petrovich. Mr. Petrovich, 32, an employee of the Moscow-based Eureka CJSC, a Russian technology company, did not immediately return emails requesting comment. Eureka CJSC’s clients include several Russian government agencies."

Of course this has nothing to do with the government, or Putin :03:
But they have really embraced the idea of capitalism, if the russian government orders civilian companies to act in their favour, for money.

But the US "alt-right" also did it:
“They tried to bombard French Twitter with memes favorable to Le Pen,” said Padraic Ryan, a project coordinator at Storyful, an online marketing company that tracks social media activity around news events. “The campaigns are showing an increasing level of sophistication and coordination.”

So i guess future elections of democratic countries depend on whether Russia or the USA hack the elections better? :hmmm:

As our IT specialists joke, atleast they didn't imput Putin into that provocation.

Been thinking for a while

I can't of course say what Russia have done or not regarding the American election.

There is though a question I need an answer to.

Did Russia something to all the American voters who was tired of the Dem and Obama and their politics ?

The only flaw in the last sentence is the fact the DEM candidate actually defeated the GOP candidate in the popular vote, which is, by virtue of the vote being a direct measure, the will of the voters, without any 'handicapping' by other processes. The popular vote would suggest voters of parties other than the GOP and Independents, by a definitive majority, chose anything other than the GOP and their candidate. This is bolstered by the fact the GOP candidate not only could not win a majority, he could not even win a plurality; that is a fact, not an opinion...
