Diebold Chases Links To Leaked Memos

Posted by timothy on from the whack-a-mole-weeble-wobble dept.

bllfrnch writes "Mary Hodder, over at The Berkeley School of Journalism's bIPlog, reports that electronic voting bigwig Diebold has begun sending cease-and-desist letters to universities whose students are linking to hijacked internal company memos that elucidate the company's level of respect for citizens' right to vote. Particularly shocking is the line: "If voting could really change things, it would be illegal.""

    If you'd looked at Google before posting something like this, you'd have noticed that this is a quote that has been floating around for a while. So it's just part of the author's signature.

    Apparently, people work add Diebold who like to make a bit of fun of themselves. Kind of surprising, huh?
