How about using that nifty Tor browser they keep rebroadcasting to access a hidden service website to vote and issue requests? Hidden services cannot by definition be accessed without Tor and are thus more secure from prying eyes, even when used by non-technical users.

The satellite receivers just store the transport stream. The data is extracted by parsing the transport stream with a Windows program. You can implement whatever scheme you like with software.
- mehdiyahya 10y agoFor now, there have been regular surveys to get feedback from users. The idea of using Tor to get more detailed feedback is a good one. Thank you.
- amazon_not 10y agoYou are welcome. Just do it in a secure way and don't store any information. Make submitting and voting completely anonymous. Don't require logins and don't log anything to protect your users. Use plain HTML and don't use JavaScript. Even if the above makes the voting easy to rig, it's more important to ensure anonymity than perfectly accurate voting results. And even with biased voting data you can figure out what the users are interested in. If nothing else it will help you cull content, as lack of interest is also a good indicator.
