News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

A comment on DemocracyOS.

What about the monitoring and modification of online communities by the GCHQ? This doesn't even look resistant to that.

Also, what about traditional ballot stuffing? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_100#Hacking anyone?

I could only trust this if there were attached a mathematical proof of its usability. Otherwise, I kind of doubt it's worth anyone's time.

Please check out: https://blogs.ncl.ac.uk/security/2014/08/30/every-vote-count...

This is a paper describing an end-to-end verifiable self-enforcing electronic voting system called DRE-i (Direct Recording Electronic with Integrity).

In my opinion this is a superior solution to any other electronic voting system developed to date.
