    If hackers uncover world spread discrimination and crime by state-sponsored wada against every athlete, then the hackers doing great job. I would personally back them at a cost of my freedom if i knew how.

      “If” is the key word in your comment. So far I see no evidence of any “world spread discrimination and crime” in the leaked reports
