https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/...leading-opposition-against-dangerous-computer This is directly related to https://www.wilderssecurity.com/thr...gia-voter-records-exposed-on-internet.394768/ This, IMO is very interesting. Similar to the Marcus Hutchins, wannacry case, a researcher finds a security flaw, in this case a flaw that pertained to the Georgia State election computers. He is subsequently investigated by the FBI. That should raise the question, why are people who find security breaches and report them, being treated as criminal suspects by the FBI? The FBI can't find anything on this guy so the state tries to pass a law making it illegal to look for security flaws. How much more will it take before everyone wakes up to what is going on.
