Donald Trump is officially the first President who openly supports conspiracy theories; his recent statements about Sweden were questioned, and soon after were backed up by riots within the Swedish government. A storm of tweets from the President on Saturday was also met with controversy from both sides of the political landscape.

The release of WikiLeaks “Vault7” relieves the spotlight from Trump’s privacy invasion claims and shines attention onto the CIA for it’s systematic approach to cyber warfare. The “Vault7” leak is a blueprint for the hacking capabilities of the Central Intelligence Agency. What does this mean for technological investments and public trust? Stocks of AVG have fallen since the WikiLeaks revelation.
