Quote:Almost every aspect of this is demonstrably wrong. CrowdStrike is not a Ukrainian company. Its cofounder and chief technology officer, Dmitri Alperovitch, was born in Russia and has lived in the US since his teenage years. The company is based in Sunnyvale, California, and went public this summer. As is standard in this sort of incident response, CrowdStrike never took physical possession of any DNC server. Its analysts instead captured an “image” of the hard drives and memories of affected machines, exact replicas that it could examine for signs of malfeasance. It handed all of that forensic evidence over to the FBI, which Department of Justice deputy assistant attorney general Adam Hickey confirmed just last month. And if the logical contortions required to view CrowdStrike as somehow partisan in all of this aren’t already enough, know that the company counts the Republican National Congressional Committee among its clients.
So: Not Ukrainian. No physical server. Not only was the FBI directly involved, but the DOJ indicted the Russian hackers responsible and laid out in exquisite detail how they did it—and how CrowdStrike fought them off. You can read the indictment for yourself here. Start on page 10; CrowdStrike is Company 1.

Trump's Ukraine Server Delusion Is Spreading
Please tell me none of you actually still believe trump's nonsense about the server.

So how do we know that the “image” was accurate?

Red herring. Ukraine does not have the server and Crowdstrike is not a Ukrainian company. trump and the GOP are lying and your defense or silence is complicit and troubling.

Regardless, how do you know when you copy a file from one directory on your computer and place it into another that it's a complete copy? You compare the files after the copy. There are myriad programs that compare files. Fairly certain CS would not be in business if their copying process wasn't fairly accurate.
