Russians already consider the leaked Panama documents a Western "doxx." The Panama leak, if you recall, showed that one of Putin's friends, a humble musician otherwise, was holding accounts worth $2bn. Western media, and opposition media in Russia, ran the story for weeks as proof of Putin's corruption.
Kremlin predictably called it a Western hoax, and an act of cyber war. I wouldn't be surprised if they ~actually~ viewed it as such. If that's the case, the DNC leak might well have been motivated, in part, as their retaliatory strike.
