Interesting but I'm not completely sure they are right Archived Message

about the modified times being even (indicating a they were created on a system running a FAT file system) prove the files had to have been taken on to a thumb drive, etc. If they had been hacked on to a system that had a hard drive running a FAT file system the files would have shown the same behaviour, or at least I think they would have. I did my degree in Computer Science but I was always a software guy not so much on systems so I could easily be wrong. I thought they had something on transfer speeds that proved it couldn't have been Gucifer as the files were transferred at a speed that couldn't be attained on that route at that time given the various cabling, switching and routing set up. To be clear, I still believe they were leaked and not hacked, but I'm just not sure the "fingerprint" of a FAT file system proves what they think it does. Having said that, most modern PCs run NTFS as their file system for hard drives and any decent hacker would probably not be fannying around with hard drives formatted in FAT.
