This was on the main page of a computer site which has NOTHING to do with politics. Just thought it was interesting that this is now spreading to non-political sites...
E-Voting Machines and Fuzzy Math There is something very wrong happening in the United States concerning a matter of vital national importance.
Diebold, maker of electronic voting machines and the software that runs them, has issued numerous DMCA "take down" notices to ISPs in a vain attempt to hide from the public several leaked internal memos.
-snip-
Diebold is sending these "take down" notices to sites hosting the memos, web sites linking to the memos on other sites and even web sites that merely link to other web sites which link to other web sites hosting the memos (say that five times fast!). If this obscene abuse of the DMCA goes much further, Diebold may try to take down my site just for mentioning the existence of the memos.
Having read some of these infamous memos myself, I can see why Diebold wants to hide them. The memos discuss all manner of unethical, questionable and possibly illegal activity. They raise serious questions about the accuracy and integrity of the voting results as counted by Diebold machines.
