Corporations are neither evil nor nice. They are indifferent. By design they only care about money, they don’t care about anything else.

The us has 3 energy grids: east coast, west coast, and texas. As long as don’t live in Texas, you shouldn’t have issues with electricity.

I said it’s relatively easy. Having both trust and anonymity online is significantly harder than in real life.

However, it is easier to pick one of those and have it online then in person. In real life, total anonymity is really hard. But online you can just use tor or something.

Hashing only works if the website stores their passwords correctly. If a single website you use doesn’t hash passwords correctly, and gets their database leaked, then your passwords will all be leaked. Changing a few characters per site may help a bit, but it shouldn’t be relied on.

Also, if you’re worried about the host shutting down, you should try bitwarden. It’s completely open source, and you can self host it if you want.

Because in real life, it’s (relatively) easy to have both anonymity and trust. Online, it’s impossible to have both. If you want to trust that the vote numbers haven’t been tampered with, you necessarily need to know everyone who voted.

This is the fundamental problem with online voting.
