"That's a whole different ballpark from voting machines which don't use a hardware TPM [0] to attest votes, but instead store them in csvs while running windows CE such that an attacker with a jumpdrive can plug it in and alter records."
you're not getting any of these access with out modifying hardware at the poling station. If poll monitoring is being performed, they're going to notice someone taking apart a voting machine.
I was at the Voter Village, Two years in a row I spent time disassembling the machines. They're not as easy as you're making it out.
Being a part of monitoring of these systems is not something stopped by big business. That's a cop out.
TPM should be a part of medical devices, but it's not. I would argue that's even more important than a voting machine. Unless you work for a manufacturer or are building a voting machine with these systems, sitting around and saying you could do X or Y doesn't solve a damn thing.
