Remember those claims by Clintoon supporters that you couldn\u2019t believe the Wikileaks emails?\u00a0 You know, especially those claims by DNC chief Donna Brazile that the Wikileaks emails had been \u201cdoctored\u201d<\/a><\/em>?<\/p>\n

Well, looks like it\u2019s indeed time to raise the \u201cbullsh!t\u201d flag.\u00a0 But the reason is not<\/span> because the emails have been \u201cdoctored\u201d.<\/p>\n

You see, the Clintoon email server \u201chillaryclinton.com\u201d that processed the email Brazille was specifically questioned about – the email where she stated that she\u2019d been slipped debate questions in advance and was passing one of them on to Clintoon – uses a verification process for outgoing email.\u00a0 The process it uses is an accepted industry standard called DomainKeys Identified Mail, or DKIM<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

DKIM verifies a given email\u2019s source using a digital signature, ensuring that it actually came from the host that purports to have sent it and isn\u2019t a fake from a spammer.\u00a0 A side benefit of such a digital signature is that the message\u2019s content is also verified \u2013 and any later alterations to that content can be readily detected.<\/p>\n

As noted in this article, the Brazile email in question checks out<\/a><\/em>.\u00a0 Its DKIM signature validates correctly; that means the email in fact came from the domain in question and has not been altered<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Oopsie.<\/p>\n

Further: \u00a0per this publicly-available tool<\/a><\/em>, the Clintoon email server \u201chillaryclinton.com\u201d which sent the Brazile email in question uses a 1024-bit RSA key.\u00a0 (To check that yourself, enter “google” in the selector field and “hillaryclinton.com” for the domain.)\u00a0 That in turn means it\u2019s not vulnerable to known feasible attacks on shorter RSA keys which might allow alteration without detection.<\/p>\n

Finally, Google hosts the \u201chillaryclinton.com\u201d email domain.\u00a0 They know a thing or two about security and key management.\u00a0 So a \u201clost private key\u201d claim (which might also allow alteration without detection) is likewise specious.<\/p>\n

In short:\u00a0 yeah, they\u2019re lying.\u00a0 Through their teeth.\u00a0 Yet again.\u00a0 And the press is aiding and abetting their lies.<\/p>\n
