I don’t know if you’ve heard about this, but it seems increasingly likely that Diebold, the manufacturer of electronic voting machines, has been playing fast and loose with the software on those machines.
This is strongly supported by Diebold’s own internal memos and communiques found here. What is the company’s response? Why, to sue the people hosting aforementioed communiques under the DMCA (Digital Millienium Copyrigh Act, if I’m remembering correctly) as though these memos were COPYRIGHTED material. BLECH!
