MORE FUN WITH DIEBOLD

Read this article (via Law.com) about Diebold's threats to engage in frivolous lawsuits over the publication of internal company memos that seem to show extraordinary flaws in the machinery used in the 2000 election, among other things:

A group of students at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania has launched an "electronic civil disobedience" campaign against voting machine maker Diebold Election Systems.

The students are protesting efforts by Diebold to prevent them and other website owners from linking to some 15,000 internal company memos that reveal the company was aware of security flaws in its e-voting software for years but sold the faulty systems to states anyway. The memos were leaked to voting activists and journalists by a hacker who broke into an insecure Diebold FTP server in March.

Go Swarthmore students.
