(4,775 posts)First, the part I agree with:
If Anonymous interfered with ORCA, and ORCA was just GOTV, that was wrong. I don't know if that's what happened, hopefully not.
But much of your post rails against Anonymous claiming to interfere with the election. I've read and watched their announcements, and have a pretty good idea what they've said. You argue against some points that they never claimed.
"There is nothing "white hat" in interfering with the software used by a state in its elections."
I have seen no claim from them that they did this. What are you talking about? Way off base, total straw man.
"Whoever manipulates an election to change the results in any way is a felon of the worst kind"
Again, I don't believe they made this claim. My understanding is they made it so that Rove and his cohort could not log in to switch any votes. That's a shield, it's not an election manipulation.
Their claim is dubious and vague, however, your OP bears little resemblance to their claims. Why?
