Talk: Analysis of an Electronic Voting System
Someone needs to inject a story about e-voting fraud into the popular imagination. Is Tom Clancy available? Maybe an anonymous, detailed, plausible, (but secretly fictional) blog describing how someone did this in their podunk county... then "leak" this to a news reporter.. Failure to be *able* to assure that this *didn't* happen in that podunk county would make an important point. ---- "On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." -- Charles Babbage --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to majordomo@metzdowd.com
