How do you know that the election wasn't decided by foreign intelligence? A good hack is one that no one notices. Creating a black out on election day wouldn't change the outcome. Leaks and planted stories could.
This fast drifts into conspiracy theories, but it seems that the outcome of the election was at least partly determined by stories floating around on Facebook.
Not saying that any of this was influenced by the Russian government (I don't think so). But there is certainly not enough information to judge what they did or if it was effective.
How do you know it wasn't done by US intelligence? You don't. My guess is the best leaks came from people inside the US govt. who couldn't stomach the Clintons back in power.
