Diebold Loses Business rather than Open Code


The Guardian reports:

It's official: Diebold election bugware can't be trusted (the company implies as much)

North Carolina officials have passed a law requiring voting machine companies place all of their source code in escrow, but Diebold has decided to withdraw from the state rather than comply.

I wonder what we would find out if every state took such a precaution.
