Support for Kamala Harris is rapidly gaining traction, and an unlikely group is now throwing their weight behind her: hackers.

    Stop posting US politics here. Why would anybody outside the US who comes here for “Technology” be interested in that?!

        You mean my answer? I’m in Germany. I don’t care about US politics. President this, president that. Literally don’t care.

      Seriously, IDGAF where it is, this post is not about technology at all.

        I can’t prove it’s true for you, but every time I read messages like this I think “lol look at that Uber conservative with bad ideas”

        Edit: in your case the problem appears to be explosive diarrhea, not being a conservative. Consider me corrected. However another person heavily agreeing with you validates my bias so I’ll stick with it ;)

        Exactly! Why are we even downvoted for this? People with political agendas are increasingly using every popular sub for posting their shit. Don’t care. Don’t want to see it.

      Just because the technology involves politics shouldn’t mean it can’t belong here also.  Why do they have to be mutually exclusive?  I’m not pushing my beliefs on anyone here.

      If you read the article (which I can only assume you did), it goes into detail about a how even  hackers from Black Hat and DEFCON (two well known cybersecurity conventions) were donating to a cause they believe in.  It even goes on to talk about hacking voting machines.

      Seems like “technology” to me.

        Literally every second word is about politics, names or institutions. Technlogy was merely mentioned.

          You could either set up a filter, or go full-Karen and complain about it.

          I see you chose the second option.

          Literally everything in the world has political implications. Get over yourself

    In a surprise announcement, the Republican National Committee has revealed it is bankrupt. A spokesman for the party said they had plenty of money in their accounts last week, but today they just don’t know where the money has gone. But not everybody is going begging. Amnesty International, Greenpeace and the United Negro College Fund announced record earnings this week, due mostly to large, anonymous donations.

      I hate this stigma, hackers aren’t criminals, yes there are criminal hackers, but hackers aren’t criminals, I don’t have the time or patience to type out everything on my phone, but look up events like defcon, without friendly hackers our cyber security would be a joke.
