carlo_ikin on 20 Sep 15Scenario: the shortest most accurate scenario is that voting machines are terrible choice as they are now. The longer version is that the old rules for security will either have to change or there will be major security issues such as vote auditing will have to be done with software which has to be checked and the software checking that has to be checked. or if votes are kept anonymous there is no way of knowing if 30% of votes were deleted then filled with fake ones. Social ethical issues: If the technology is compromised then it allows the peoples opinion to be hidden by stronger powers. This can lead to dictatorships or buying victories instead of winning them. It systems: the ease of computers also allows for ease of changing things. This means that there is no way (yet) to separate the pros from the cons . Stakeholders: Political parties, business, hackers, countries
