The Official Indictment
Note: The below article, DIEBOLD changed their name to "Premier". They pulled the old "switcheroo", as I'm sure AIG will. I have AIG auto insurance for years. My last statement, it said "21st Century". I called them and asked what the deal was, and they wouldn't give me a straight answer, but apparently AIG, at least the auto insurance part of it, pulled the old "switcheroo", too!!! Same CRAP, different name. In other news: Hitler changed his name to Adolph Cunningham, so I guess WWII never happened...
Diebold Admits Audit Logs in ALL Versions of Their Software Fail to Record Ballot Deletions. Startling admission made during public hearing in CA to consider decertification of the company's voting and tabulation software...

Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) LAUNCHED A SEARCH TOOL FOR UNCOVERED GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS as part of our celebration of Sunshine Week. The search tool is sophisticated technology that allows the public to closely examine thousands of pages of documents we have pried loose from secretive government agencies. In addition, we're posting scores of never-before seen documents on several controversial government initiatives, including the FBI's Investigative Data Warehouse and DCS 3000 surveillance program, and the Department of Homeland Security's Automated Targeting System and ADVISE data-mining project.
Over the past two and a half years, EFF has filed hundreds of FOIA requests and made thousands of pages of once-secret documents available to the public on our website. Our FOIA work has revealed details about the FBI's improper use of National Security Letters, uncovered the Department of Homeland Security's internal policies on searching and interrogating travelers at the border, and revealed information about the technology the government uses to wiretap cell phones.
The release of these new documents is just one step in the ongoing fight for greater government transparency. EFF will continue to pressure the government to remember its
obligations to transparency and to the public.
