Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
We can have perfectly secure online voting, if you're willing for all votes to be public. Or we can have perfectly secure and anonymous voting, if you're okay with some secret master list. There are very smart people working on cryptographic voting protocols and I think I would love to live in an online-voting-based direct democracy, but as it stands we don't know how to set that system up.
Maybe we could make publicly known votes work. Athens did it, the early US did it. But there are problems with both intimidation and incentivization, and we'd need some sort of framework to prevent that.
