Hack Attack-2020

      Oh, well.  It's 2020 and not  much has gone right around the blue planet:  hurricanes, typhoons, floods, a few quakes, a pandemic, continued conflict in the Middle East, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, and also Brexit problems.   It's an election year in the USA: then that means that state actors will roll out their sovereign hackers to disrupt any and all political contests to thwart local control.  It is getting tiresome.  Microsoft Corp. spread the word that 3 state actors are responsible for the latest efforts to disrupt:  Russya, Iran, and our Chinese friends from Beijing.  Apparently, these states wish to influence outcomes that would be most beneficial to the state's aims.  In reality, they wish to sow dissension and mistrust of government among the citizenry throughout the USA.   They continue to act in a manner that makes them all unfit for any leadership in the modern world as they persist in using failed methods to raise their influence globally.   Sanctions will only increase, especially with China and Russya.  Perhaps some voters will be duped by fake news put out by the various agents, but like 2016, it will hardly affect the outcome.  Best wishes to Xi and Vlady and the Ayatollah.
