Those two things are not comparable. Hacking election machines to actually change the vote is not what is happening. People are finding information and releasing it. So in your view the Billy Bush tape should have been suppressed? Should all negative campaign ads be stopped? Should MSNBC and FOX news be taken off the air for a period before the election?
It's a slippery slope we head down when talking about not having information released.
