open voting
yay! sequoia announced recently that all of the source code used in their election machines will be made available to public scrutiny. this is really good. it's pretty scary for a for-profit company to disclose their trade secrets. but seriously, the issue of voter confidence is just too important for the type of company that's primarily concerned about selling its product. security experts have claimed for years that secret security systems are far less secure than open security systems. heh. sequoia for president.
