Whistleblowers vs. DRE Manufacturers, Round I
Posted by Rebecca Bolin on Sunday, May 02 @ 12:46:36 EDT Governance
DRE manufacturers have had their hands full with legal trouble recently. But where did all of this information come from? Last year, a software engineer filed a lawsuit claiming he was fired for whistleblowing about software/testing flaws and noncompliance with FEC procedure. He settled the complaint with no public details.

The shocking part of this story is that his employer was the cuddly, (now) open-source, verified VoteHere, which should have been the least slimy. Makes you wonder what happens to other whistleblowers...
