Between them, the articles describe efforts made and proposed to identify and correct problems with voting machine security, accuracy and precision, and to instill in the voting population the notion that such machines are trustworthy.

Anonymous Blogging for Political Dissidents
Reporters sans Frontièrs has recently published a "Handbook for Bloggers and Cyber-Dissidents". Not just another "This is what a 'blog' is and why it's all the rage", but an in-depth, technically fertile description of how to blog anonymously and get around [government] censors. Clearly aimed at people in environments of journalistic restrictions and/or monopolies, the 46-page [English] PDF is available in Engish, Spanish and French, and contains personal accounts from the US and around the world, as well as tips for covering your email trail.
