Remote Internet voting issue

[ecy5maa]

Hi guys,

 

 

Traditional voting via paper ballots at polling stations, meant that each individual was free to vote for his candidate in complete privacy. A father could vote for a separate candidate and a son for another candidate. So I was wondering is there any way in which to ensure similar privacy when using Internet voting as well ? Or will that then depend on the voter to ensure that he is in a 'private' environment?

 

I understand its probably not big of an issue since at worst one would vote in front of friends and family...but doesnt it regardless prove a security flaw in internet voting?

 

 

Thanks

 

Regards

Internet voting presumably would require the same kind of safeguards as internet banking or purchasing.
