Diebold Voting Machine Key Copied From Diebold's Website

The Princeton Diebold Virus Hack, if you've been living in a cave, found that a single person with 60 seconds of unsupervised access to the system, who either picked the lock (easy in 10 seconds) or had a key, could slip a vote-swapping virus onto a single machine which could then undetectably affect every other machine in the county to steal an entire election.

But the folks at Princeton who discovered the hack (after our own organization, VelvetRevolution.us, gave them the Diebold touch-screen machine on which to perform their tests) had resisted showing exactly what the key looked like in order to hold on to some semblance of security for Diebold's Disposable Touch-Screen Voting Systems.

But guess what? Diebold didn't bother to even have that much common sense. The company has had a photograph of the stupid key sitting on their own website's online store!

This video shows the memory card door of a Diebold AccuVote-TS electronic voting machine being opened using a key cut by Ross Kinard based on a photograph on Diebold's web site.
