WikiLeaks says CIA disguised hacking as Russian activity
 

Latest WikiLeaks release shows how the CIA uses computer code to hide the origins of its hacking attacks and 'disguise them as Russian or Chinese activity'


- WikiLeaks published 676 source code files today which it claimed are from CIA

- It says the CIA disguised its own hacking attacks to make it appear those responsible were Russian, Chinese, Iranian or North Korean

WikiLeaks has published hundreds more files today which it claims show the CIA went to great lengths to disguise its own hacking attacks and point the finger at Russia, China, North Korea and Iran.

The 676 files released today are part of WikiLeaks' Vault 7 tranche of files and they claim to give an insight into the CIA's Marble software, which can forensically disguise viruses, trojans and hacking attacks.

WikiLeaks says the source code suggests Marble has test examples in Chinese, Russian, Korean, Arabic and Farsi (the Iranian language).

It says: 'This would permit a forensic attribution double game, for example by pretending that the spoken language of the malware creator was not American English, but Chinese.'

This could lead forensic investigators into wrongly concluding that CIA hacks were carried out by the Kremlin, the Chinese government, Iran, North Korea or Arabic-speaking terror groups such as ISIS.

WikiLeaks, whose founder Julian Assange remains holed up in the Ecuadorean Embassy in London, said Vault 7 was the most comprehensive release of US spying files ever made public.

Internet false flag imho op

wikileaks, Putin's favourite tool.

Unfortunately he isn't smart enough to put out some leaks on Russian intelligence as well to mask that he is the one behind it all... oops...

Any evidence to back that up?

there you go :)

quite old, but these morons from KGB didnt change that much since years. Their main purpose was always: divide allies, stir up mess, disinformate, plant confusion, spread lies and semi-lies...
if caught, they usually avoid direct answers and just answer the questions with other questions :)

I spot already one Russian troll here on this forum.... Its even more sad if he is not troll, but just brainwashed "normal" Russian, fed by russian state TV.

also, to resume:
Russian Active Measures and Influence Campaigns - Carnegie Endowment for International Peace

I'm still waiting for the leak that exposes major corporations as government shills...

If it was Russia behind Wikileaks, UK would have done something to stop it, but it's Israel behind WikiLeaks :2 cents:

actually, this article is really well written and balanced, I recommend reading it :)
Russian Active Measures and Influence Campaigns - Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
Also, one quote from it:
Since Russia cannot compete toe-to-toe with the West, its leaders have embraced a wide range of tools—information warfare in all its forms, including subversion, deception, dis- and mis-information, intimidation, espionage, economic tools, including sanctions, bribery, selective favorable trading regimes, influence campaigns, etc. This toolkit has deep historical roots in the Soviet era and performs the function of the equalizer that in the eyes of the Kremlin is intended to make up for Russia’s weakness vis a vis the West.

another quote:

Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election is likely to be seen by the Kremlin as a major success regardless of whether its initial goal was to help advance the Trump candidacy. The payoff includes, but is not limited to a major political disruption in the United States, which has been distracted from many strategic pursuits; the standing of the United States and its leadership in the world have been damaged; it has become a common theme in the narrative of many leading commentators that from the pillar of stability of the international liberal order the United States has been transformed into its biggest source of instability; U.S. commitments to key allies in Europe and Asia have been questioned on both sides of the Atlantic and the Pacific. And last, but not least, the Kremlin has demonstrated what it can do to the world’s sole remaining global superpower.

and another quote, makes me sad about all these brainwashed Russians, typical fucking crooked government raping its nation to get more power:
Whereas there are some voices inside Russia who, like the leading anti-corruption activist Alexei Navalny, have challenged the many domestic failings and authoritarian leanings of the Putin government, there are hardly any who have challenged its foreign policy record. Worse yet, the Kremlin propaganda has been apparently so effective, and the legal constraints imposed by it so severe, that few Russian opposition voices dare to challenge the government’s foreign policy course for fear of being branded as foreign agents, enemies of the people, and fifth columnists.
it of course works the other way too - ie: "Snowden is a traitor and Russian spy, we should hang him etc."
fucking crooks everywhere

I had a read but I didn't see any clear evidence. Whereas we know that Breitbart, Infowars, Rupert Murdoch (Fox News) are all Israel/Zionist, and we know that WikiLeaks is very kind to Israel. If Assange was working for Russia, it seems unlikely he'd be allowed to survive in London :2 cents:

I always trust everything Wikileaks says. I mean, just because they are involved in hacking and stealing classified data isn't important to me at all.

Come to think of it... I am stunned they are allowed to continue. I am really surprised the CIA hasn't taken them out yet.

it was more in general and off topic :)
Assagne works for himself, but it doesnt mean that he cant be manipulated by these or those :)

Pretty sure Assange would be dead if he worked for himself, surely some kind of high level protection behind him

Mossad are superior to CIA :2 cents:

klinton triggered :1orglaugh

everybody already knew this was true, watching fake Comey the Clown testify... like he was telling children a story.

Have 2 version :1orglaugh
1. It is not Russia did it
2. Putin ruled by US and UK

Real life is just like the cable TV show HomeLand these days. WTF, so dead and so powerless to change anything. Our policies are terrible.

Meanwhile never a major leak from Russia on wikileaks.. Not even the Panama Papers were published on wikileaks.. Not to mention, Julian Assange gets paid by RT where he has his own show the news mouth piece of the Kremlin. Not exactly in a position he can be taken serious or unbiased.

Sorry, but wikileaks doesn't count for much anymore.. They have clearly chosen to be biased and can't be trusted to be honest. Assange has ruined any chance for them to ever be taken serious again.. It's a shame because I supported the idea behind wiki leaks but they have been corrupted or who knows maybe they are were corrupt..

Oh but I do. They don't leak Russian intelligence at all. Only western nations that Russia is at odds with. That is only circumstantial evidence of course but that is more than enough to make it painfully obvious. Unlike the endless bullshit you try to pull off here on a weekly basis that are backed by some random psycho who makes a youtube video.

Yes, dated for a reason. When assange was a hunted man and ran to Russia with his tail between his legs for refuge it came at a price.. the price was Putin got to use wikileaks as a cover for his own intelligence agency any time he feels like it. Maybe if he didn't use it in such an obvious way it would actually be more effective but he seems to be a bit dim with these regards--which is a bit surprising honestly.

When Snowden coming in Russia CIA block him passport

Snowden Route Maps | Suprageography

Snowden was the rare oddity that fell into wikileaks lap, just like Manning was, but being actual leaks with lots of dirt. I don't think Russia or anyone else was behind Snowden's leak. Wikileaks & Russia benefited from it by happenstance because what's bad for the US is good for Russia.


Snowden basically took the only action he could, which was to hide in Russia because he's smart enough to know that Putin would not turn him over to the US because he's a bit of embarrassment to the US having him there.

My guess is Snowden is very relieved that all this Russia hacking came out and Trump is mixed up in it. If Putin/Trump would of ended up with a good relationship it's very obvious Snowden would have been handed over..

:-) I dont remember Assagne coming to Russia.
If you meant Snowden, well...
Snowden is a true idealist, that did what he do the best. And at least one country had balls to give him asylum...
Yet, the same country uses him for his own propaganda purposes...Which of course doesnt undermine at all the FACTS that Snowden leaked.
And yeah, only narrow minded people will attach these facts to only US govermnent...All power greedy bastards are the same worldwide everywhere.
The links that I posted about KGB's methods on disinformation - while used by Russia recently on large scale to stir things up - are nothing new...and yeah, Snowden docs confirm them also being used by Five Eyes...
not sure why would you even confuse Assagne with Snowden....
unless you meant Ecuador as Russia's ally that offered him room in embassy ? :)

Not to mention, that the biggest leak in recent history that had connections to Russia was the Panama Papers and wikileaks did nothing to help with that and also did everything possible to discredit the journalist working on it..

More anti American Putin propaganda from WeHateAmerica.

Notice Putin put WkikiLeaks out right now as a distraction :thumbsup

You guys need to play the current game these old tricks don't mean shit now and WikiLeaks & Julian Assange have NO credibility anymore weaponizing WikiLeaks is one of many mistakes Putin made this last year :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

WikiLeaks is like that hot girl you meet that you put on a pedestal worshiping every word and movement until that one day you reach up her dress and realize she's a tranny :thumbsup

thats HOT :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

:banana:thumbsup 🔥🔥🔥

What good we have from this?

Good for Putin.

WikiLeaks is a weapon for Putin.

Putin used WkikiLeaks today as a weapon to discredit the agencies that are cornering Putin's pet for collusion with the enemy.

Putin has good from WikiLeaks, nobody else. WikiLeaks can't be trusted anymore it's shelf life expired after Putin weaponized it.

It's all this NSA shill's been crying about all day. If he doesn't agree with you, then ur a putin puppet.

That is entirely possible; Mossad is outright scary. But the CIA has nearly unlimited resources. Just as an example, the only budget info I can find for the CIA is $27 billion in 1998. It seems the entire budget for the country of Israel in 2015 was $108 billion.

But when Mossad goes to war, they never stop.

By the fact it made the US look bad with all the spying. It was a shit storm and lots of tools got taken away from the NSA.. I'm sure they have most back by now but up till that point we could always claim Russia and China were hacking spying more than the US did..

Obviously anyone with a brain understands every major country was doing this but it was the 1st time it had been outright proven the US was doing it.

Our guys were always very good keeping this stuff quiet and out of the limelight. I mean for fucks sake we stole your Sputnik satellite for 12hrs in Russia during the cold war and you guys never knew until it was declassified like 30 years later.

Aaaaaw JoshuaMo is using one of his 14 nics to be mean so cute! Nah I got more than the internet I always got my fat cock my programming skills, my creative mind, my photographic talents, my kid, my dogs, living by the beach in sunny California, all the money I need (I'm not rich), I'm good. But you, on the other hand, are lonely and stuck trying to bring people down all day and take from them instead of giving to people and bringing them up. One identity here isn't enough for you, you're so broken there aren't enough personas to fill that deep dark cold black empty hole in your chest. Just be brave and honestly focus on yourself as ugly as you are inside remember cowshit germinates fields of flowers just nurture that inkling of hope and new life will grow in the cracks of your broken spirit ✌

Pay No Attention To The Man Behind The Curtain !

I'm not sure if it is good or bad that we are getting numb to all the BS.

But I will say it is never a good thing when the less educated voter does not know where to turn for reliable information. Most of the disinformation is intentional.

It provides a method for those in power to retain it with the ability to shape your opinion for you without self realization. It is normally a war footing tactic but here it is in our everyday life.

Anyone not understanding that is probably a victim of it.

we've got our dirty little paws in all elections across the globe. Misinformation helps to get the person the U.S. wants to get elected.

examples like this, show how the U.S. controls even simple matters in smaller countries -

Pressure grows on Hungary to let Soros-founded school remain | Newsday

They forgot to mention GFY :2 cents::thumbsup

I don't think that is news to anyone but thanks for making my point again.

So far I've yet to see anything revealed in these leaks that was really important.

Putin "WikiLeaks weapon" locate in London? In an impregnable fortress that the CIA can't storm? :1orglaugh

It is all lyrics. What profit $ from this we have? Putin idiot for make damage for himself?
It's even more foolish to interfere in the US elections - because even you will have success, after half US will start angry on you - and it is not give profit $ too, only damage in future.

... because after years of praising them as the source for whistleblowers, the media calls it that all of a sudden after their shitty corrupt war monger candidate was exposed.

Fixed that for you.

:error :upsidedow

Any evidence to back up Wikileaks claim? They released a low level hacking tool that likely came from the other leaks a few weeks ago but was held back..

Then with out any proof they make broad and far reaching claim that this was proof the CIA did it all.along...

Meanwhile you still can't see the connection between Wikileaks and Russia...


Not to mention Julian Assange has his own fucking TV show on RT..
