Putin replies, “so what?”
Anti-Doping ?
Yeah - and four of them tried also to hack the global chemical weapons watchdog.
The announcement from the justice department’s national security division on Thursday comes after Dutch officials said they had disrupted a Russian cyberattack on the global chemical weapons watchdog.
Four of the officers were charged with targeting the watchdog. All seven of the officers were indicted on cyber hacking charges linked to the hacking of Olympic athletes drug test data, in an alleged bid to undermine efforts to tackle Russian doping.

The World Anti-Doping Agency lifted their suspension against Russia two weeks ago, I wonder if this will change that.
Prosecutors say the Russians also targeted a Pennsylvania-based nuclear energy company and an international organization that was investigating chemical weapons in Syria and the poisoning of a former GRU officer.
And yet the anti-doping agency gets the lede? Evidently the AP has its priorities.
Trump’s best buddies were doing bad things again?
I guess that is what a “Be Best” philosophy gets us biggly.
And the Chinese are putting hidden hacking hardware on motherboards manufactured in China and used in the US and worldwide.
Now we know what trump aspires to.
