Somehow they must feel that convincing people that someone "hacked", i.e. "stole" the "personal" emails, changes the content of the material itself, therefore demonizing those seeking truth.

The file was named FOIA.zip and contained files from a directory called FOI2009. Steve McIntyre's freedom of information act request, reference number FOI_99-44, was finally turned down by CRU on Nov. 13th, the day after the last email date in the FOIA.zip file. CRU was required to assemble emails and other documents in response to a validly filed FOIA request, and what's in the FOIA.zip file looks just like the files they would assemble. There are lots more bits of internal evidence to indicate these files were put together by a CRU staffer, not a sophisticated and unscrupulous Russian spy with countless hours to spend on picking through hundreds of thousands of emails to select the 2% that would make Phil Jones look bad.
