Even if some of the elections were legit on those machines, there are kids who’ve hacked those machines and compromised the results in under 10 minutes
The reality is bad enough without having to resort to exaggeration. This is more on Brietbart than you, but it's still bad.
kids were given an introductory walkthrough of how to perform an SQL injection
39 kids from ages 6-17 attempted to hack replicas of the SOS websites of 6 swing states 35 kids were able to complete an exploit.
What this means is they gave instruction amounting to "type this and then the name you want and it's will work," then sat them down at PCs with a browser pointed at a website that was already known to have the vulnerability. Kids didn't "hack voting machines in under 10 minutes." They typed a given string into a text box. Four of them were bad at following instructions.
And being able to manipulate the public result website (while hilariously inept) doesn't mean being able to affect the real tallies. Hyperbole is why people tune out the real stories about this stuff.
