Electronic voting: Open Source is not a solution
Par Roberto Di Cosmo, mardi 4 novembre 2008 à 22:52 :: Politique/Politics
It is election day in the US, so the time is particularly favorable to attracting public attention, again, to electronic voting machines... probably the most funny example of this is Oprah's vote getting lost on a touch screen; knowing Oprah's tremendous reach, maybe a non negligible amount of North American citizens now knows that computers don't do good voting devices. Unfortunately, Oprah's blamed this on herself, in the all too common old mood of blaming oneself for somebody else's bad software design that made companies like Microsoft immensely rich.
