Don't they have voting machines every year at DEFCON?
I feel like this is already been litigated.
"Mitigated", but yes, that's a good point. I'm sure it was put through its paces there.
Oh, it's been litigated alright: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominion_Voting_Systems_v._Fox_News_Network
True! I forgot about that.
I figured they meant technologically mitigated but you're right they could've meant legally litigated.
No that's a different word.
Litigated, means to have already discussed and arrived at an answer.
Mitigated, means a solution is already in place. No one's fixed the issue so it's litigated, but not mitigated.
I meant what I said.
