br_smartass··on Fraud possible in Brazil's e-voting system
Stop being such a wimp. All the places everywhere in the world through all history have had issues(something you're probably ignorant of, I suppose), get over it.

ps downvoter.: Sorry if it's too agressive but the point I'm trying to make here is that ignorant opinions and defeatism aren't going to take us anywhere, people really need to get over this IMO. As the quote of "a little learning is a dangerous thing", shallow knowledge intoxicates the mind, but drinking it largely sobers us again ;)

I doubt Brazil is ever going back to paper voting. With that said, human vote counting is exploitable/error-prone, too, and electronic vote counting instead of electronic voting seems like it'd have the same issues the voting machine has.

The solution is clear to me, make it open-source, give bounties for issue-fixing. If the current software is crap hire RSA and/or some nice software shop to refactor and audit it, then open-source it.

are you aware of how infantile you sound?

Behold, readers, the brazilian inferiority complex.
