Without a way to verify how they're being maintained we don't really know
A bunch of flash drives in his pocket dropping them out in the parking lot
I mean it's not exactly the same as servers I work on but the concept seems similar to audit appliances we use
I don't know
Do we know they don't have a way?
I mean it could be a top-notch system
But it seems like they would be trotting that inside out front and center
I'll tell you typically organization sit on data breaches and hope they don't come out because they don't want their stock price to drive...
I don't act in good faith as they should
Idk man. Seems like the kind of thing I would clip a guy for in order to suppress it for the purpose of claiming fraud.
Or they don't know about the breach until sometime after
I looked at what I could publically they dont put white papers and such as some products it's more secret but basic features are listed
There's just so many scenarios
Paper trails are gold standard voters check the receipts it gets locked up
My overall point is there's got to be something better... a trust system that no one trusts is worthless
Georgia hand counted the print outs
Definitely there should be a way for a voter to verify what their vote is
Even with a hand count you don't know if you received fraudulent ballots
And what about the input in the touch screen
In the past I voted like that it never got any kind of paper verification and I felt weird about it at the time
Before this election Georgia recount had no paper trail the machine counted them all and they yelled at their computer "check it again" and push a button and get the same result
Honestly we don't know if our vote counts
The newer dominion machines you select your votes it prints them you check and it gets locked
If we don't collectively as a country figure out a way to make sure this doesn't happen in the future we are not very smart
At my voting location they must you old style because there is no paper output...
Or a different system
Fooling the paper count is super hard and whatever you are doing would create the same problem with paper ballots
But even with paper it would be nice to go back and look like
Like I can look up a Bitcoin transaction
Make sure what doesn't happen?
Multi check for the end user
There's got to be a country in the world that actually gets this right?
Right?
Maybe
The admin side of security is the hard bits you have to trust somebody enough to admin the parts of the system
Maybe we got it right and people are trying to confuse the populace for some reason.
Js
That could be true as well
We have to watch them do their thing and judge as we go.
We don't have access to it.
