I won't comment on the feasibility of your suggestion, but you're proposing to use technology to solve a political problem.

- bsbechtel 13y agoI guess it starts with how we define the problem. Edward Snowden whistle-blowing to the press is a problem, for the NSA. The government using the NSA to spy on us is a problem, for us. The lack of qualified candidates running for office who won't spy on us is a problem, for us. Technology makes our lives better by solving problems. Defining this as a political problem is only limits the solutions we can come up with. Obviously the U.S. Government doesn't have any problem using technology for political purposes. As citizens, why shouldn't we? I'm not anymore sure than you if my suggestion is feasible, but my point is to at least throw some ideas out there.
