The article was posted on Slashdot. I usually stay clear of posting news from known sites [because anybody that has any idea about this world can get to them ] but I was curious what AO thinks about this. Especially with the [confirmed or not?] rumours about the rigging of the previous US elections.

Vote Tabulator Security Hole Exposed

Black Box Voting has exposed a security hole in Diebold machines that tabulate votes collected from electronic voting machines. A code entered into the tabulator's user interface duplicates the "secure" counts into an insecure count which can be changed, and counted instead.

I believe there isn't enough security measures [as those referred by the links in the article] anybody can take to make sure nobody will try to change the count. It's politics we're talking about here... If they're dealing with a lot of logs, those logs can misteriously disappear [let me guess... at the hands of hackers or terrorists].

Any thoughts on this?
