Wait, so you mean this is the second guy to "step in and fix it" since October? That would seem to indicate this is truly an enormous disaster.
Can't you do that on Ubuntu too? I thought the different distros really were just installation defaults.
Oh my that was a terrible episode.

Funny, I had the same reaction when I read it. He seemed like a salesman for Google or something.

So, if this stands does this mean it's lawful for Google to make the full text available of these books, or not?
Fair use cases are very fact specific. If you start monkeying with the facts, Judge Chin might not feel the same way about it.

If you have such a system, you also have a system that could trivially just hand the voter a ballot, since you have already satisfied anonymity, uniqueness, resistance to plural voting, etc. No need for the crypto at all.
Except that later, each voter can log in from home, and verify that his vote was recorded for his candidate. Still not perfect, but not bad!
