THOSE OLYMPIC COOPERATORS

I've Been Telling You and Telling You...
Russia, Iran, China, North Korea and a bunch of others are all over the Net

They are in your Twitter feed, your Facebook pages, your Instagrams and favorite sub-Reddits. They write many of the comments in the "Comments" sections of your favorite news and opinion sites. they sell you things on Amazon and the auction sites. They traffic in your financial data stolen from Equifax.  
You know all that, of course. 

Here's a fine piece of journalism from a credible source about the strange variation on the cyber wars as practiced by North Korea. Even their highest class hackers are the slaves of the regime.
NONE of us has Kim Jong-un's haircut!
There are no strong borders in the cybersphere. Mostly no borders at all. Darn Fern'ers are swarming around us like mosquitoes at Texas summer sundown. The more we educate ourselves about this, the more we can watch our (and each other's) back.

MY PASSION, AS PERHAPS YOU GATHER, IS THE POLLUTION OF "COMMENTS." The big syndicated message management systems like Disqus will kill a comment for saying "shit" or other common vulgarities, but will let a bald-face piece of anti-American propaganda go right through.
