Bashing Internet Voting
from the who-needs-it dept
A federal election official seems to have something of a grudge against the internet. While he might have some valid points he goes on and on about the evils of the internet as if it's some horrible monster that's going to destroy us all. I'm wondering what the internet did to wrong this guy. I'm especially confused by the last quote, which sounds like the mutterings of a guy who was caught with child pornography on his computer. Of course, I have no idea how that statement relates to online voting.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
