The argument is that if Country A uses cyber warfare it's "good", but if country R does it, it's "bad". While both are doing the exact same thing, as I said above.

Is trying to stop a country from obtaining nuclear weapons in violation of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty really morally equivalent to interference with a democratic election?

If country R hacking other countries is an accepted fact, why all the whining about it being covered in media? It is a big deal.
