We're told that digital security is a cat and mouse game between computer geniuses, but the reality is a lot less impressive and sadder than we're led to believe.
Every computer system can be compromised, even artificial intelligence. But despite some recent warnings, it's not about to become a prime new target for hackers.
WikiLeaks and pro-Kremlin trolls are charging the CIA with hacking the DNC to rig the election for Trump so they can... keep Trump from winning?
