Is it really surprising that a Presidential election is a juicier press coverage topic than the Office of Personnel Management? The House released a comprehensive and scathing report on the OPM hack: https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/The-O... Countries gather intelligence about each other all the time, the interesting part of the hacks surrounding the elections is that the information was made public in an attempt to influence the results. If you recall form the 2008 election both the Obama and McCain campaigns were hacked by China, but it was a conventional information gathering operation. It was in the news, but fell off quickly because nothing was released to try and influence the election. |
