No, that would be terrible ! I see it this way : they give you a USB key containing a key (pub and private). It is not affiliated to you in any way. It's just generated and stored on the USB key.
One problem I start to see is : how can you prevent somebody that has a key, but is not allowed to vote, from voting ? This could be done by keeping a record (mabay again on a blockchain) of the allowed keys. Therefore, each key would have an expirity date.
- detaro 9y ago> It is not affiliated to you in any way. How can I know/trust that? These things are proposed a lot, and they all tend to fail around ease of use, properly establishing anonymity, and trust into their implementation.
- artonge 9y agoA guess you trust this system the same way you trust people from not looking in the urn after you put the envelop in. Or not altering the count when they open it. Do you have an example of failure like you said ?
