Diebold Issues Cease and Desist to Indymedia

Posted by michael on from the speak-no-evil dept.

h0mee writes "Diebold, manufacturer of election equipment, has issued a Cease and desist notice to the upstream provider of San Francisco Indymedia for having links to mirrors of a leaked internal diebold memo. More than just a case of a leak, Diebold has been raising a lot of questions about the fairness and security of elections in the United States. (Perhaps it's time for peer reviewable software like gnu.free? ;)"

    Sure, go whine to your elected representives. Whine to them that if they don't do something about this, you won't vote for them next election.

    Hang on a sec... I think I see a problem here.

    Do you want a corporation to have the power to decide arbitrarily the outcome of elections?

    No way! I'd much rather leave it in the hands of the candidate's governor brother and/or the Supreme Court.
