Cybersecurity LEGEND McAfee:‘Russian Hack’ Is NOT TRUE! (McAffee: evidence intel “ignorant & naïve")

John McAfee Talks About ‘Russian Hack’

One of the most brilliant cyber-security experts has come forward to give his thoughts on the supposed Russian hack of the U.S. election.

I will be on @RT_America today at 8pm ET. I’ll drop a bombshell on today’s US intelligence claims. @realDonaldTrump I hope you’re listening.

— John McAfee (@officialmcafee) January 5, 2017

From RT:

The sloppiness of the alleged DNC hack by itself proves it was not organized by a nation state, and the “utter nonsense” presented as proof of Moscow’s involvement is rather evidence of intelligence agencies being “ignorant and naïve,” John McAfee told RT.

The so-called evidence of the Russian involvement in the hacks not only looks like “the most deceptive propaganda was perpetrated on the American public” but actually proves quite the opposite, McAfee believes…

Thus, McAfee believes, the whole “Russian hacking” narrative is either “propaganda intended to incite the American people, to anger toward Russia for some reason, or our intelligence community is so ignorant and naïve that they should all be replaced.”

Cybersecurity specialist believes that based on the presented evidence the hack “cannot possibly be an organized nation-state.”

***“The hack on the DNC used a piece of malware a year and a half old and there have been many updates since then, McAfee said. “This was done by an independent one person kid that downloaded the software. Please, this is not an organized hack and certainly not a nation-state that did this.”***

Evidence I’d say of a disinformation campaign to have the American public connect Trump & Russia.

This could easily be an effort on ANYONE’S part to discredit Trump:

Democrats

Chamber of Commerce

Russia (who would want a weaker Trump)

Other countries

If anyone would know about ‘hacking’ it would be John McAfee...he is brilliant...and he probably has had many talks with President Trump about this, and when President Trump comes out today with ‘facts’ not ‘unnamed sources’ RATS heads are going to explode...

I can’t wait!!!

Brilliant he may well be, but he’s a certifiable nut, too. Not wise to hang any hats on what he’s said. He believes the CIA are hanging out around his house en masse, dropping candy wrappers to taunt him.

Sounds like something the CIA would do.

"Brilliant he may well be, but he’s a certifiable nut, too."

What's with the comment on the Gateway Pundit that McAfee is a murderer? Do you know what that's about?

Exactly. While I certainly agree with his conclusion, McAfee is a loony tune who lost touch with reality long ago. He has been out of the security business for over a decade now, and he must have left his sanity behind when he left the United States.

The attacts on Trump could well be an Islamic counter-Trump initiative to weaken Trump.

Obama and CIA head Brennan are either tilted toward Islam or are secret islamics.

***“Are you kidding me?” Trento balked at Guandolo’s allegations. “The head of the CIA is a Muslim? For real? … Are you sure?”

“Yes I am,” Guandolo asserted. “The facts of the matter are confirmed by U.S. government officials who were also in Saudi Arabia at the time that John Brennan was serving there and have direct knowledge. These are men who work in very trusted positions, they were direct witnesses to his growing relationship with the individuals who worked for the Saudi government and others and they witnessed his conversion to Islam.”***

One hundred percent of the hysterics around this is coming from those who opposed Trump during the campaign.

And not just opposed him. They were the ones smirking, sneering, scowling and wincing every time Trump’s name came up.

Yeah, he was investigated in Belize in connection with a neighbor turning up dead.

He ran off to Guatemala before ending up back in the U.S.

Usual thing with allegations of drugs, etc.

Nice thing about banana republics is that you don't have to be a billionaire to skate.

McAffee used a shotgun to kill a friend or acquaintance in central America. Had some looney, drugged out excuse. Ran off and not yet prosecuted.

He’s openly and admittedly experimenting with some seriously dangerous, mind-altering drugs. Arrogant. He seems to believe that he’s too intelligent to fall prey to delusions driven by these drugs, even while making bizarre delusional claims in published interviews. It won’t end well for him, I’m afraid.

2 things:

1. murder is unproven

2. Clinton is an unconvicted murderer. She says Russia WAS involved. We’re to trust them?

Comey’s statement on Hillary’s Emails

With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not find direct evidence that Secretary Clinton’s personal e-mail domain, in its various configurations since 2009, was successfully hacked. But, given the nature of the system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we would be unlikely to see such direct evidence.

the problem with “LEGEND” McAfee is that he’s crazy as a shitehouse rat. The man has spent the last few decades running naked through South America rain forests looking for plant samples to feed the homemade lab he setup in his tent trying to find exotic new hallucinogens, with himself beings test subject numero uno.
