OK, but isn't this only HALF of it? Don't we need to see the changed data coming back here as well?
Exactly. You can show all the evidence in the world that all the election data was transmitted from America to every major (and minor) city in the world, and then back. If there's no evidence that any of that election data was wrongly changed or illegally manipulated, the Congress, state legislatures, and courts will likely respond: Yes, that is "extremely concerning," therefore those issues should be further studied and addressed so it is never allowed to happen again, to ensure we have "secure" elections. But since there is no proof that any election data was actually wrongly or illegally changed or corrupted, there is nothing to be done.
That's how state legislatures, the Congress, and the courts would react to such information and testimony that did not include any proof of wrongly or illegally changed election data.
Actually, no. Per what I’ve read these machines are not supposed to be connected to the internet nor communicating election information offshore at all. There are several EOs on this and it places said activity into the realm of national security.
The moment the packets were transmitted the crime was committed.
