Chapter 6 - Computer and Network Security

The issue of online voting was discussed in Chapter 6. I can see the many pros of using this technology, but I feel that at this point in time, the cons heavily outweigh the pros. After reading "The Blue Nowhere", I feel like nothing online is safe from people who have a strong desire and knowledge to hack into other people's computers and wreak havoc. It would be too easy for educated hackers to unethically affect the outcome of elections. It's obvious that most of these hackers have no ethical and moral standards that drive their decision making.
