“...had the data packets it sent opened on the hour by human members of Trump’s data team...”
Thinking about data communications, that sounds entirely doable. You just have to grab a section of Cat 5 ethernet cable, carefully slice off the insulation, strip each wire, and let the data drip out. You have to be careful to let it pour out in straight lines so that the sentences don’t get all jumbled up. Don’t worry, if too much data is pouring out, just pinch off the cable.
And that is never gonna happen!
