This. You are basing the bedrock of your democracy/country on an illusion.

I have had countless discussions with my colleagues and not one of them understands the gravity of closed EVM machines instead believe in security by obscurity. It makes me sad that if the very people who work in technology are like ostriches with their heads buried in sand, how can you expect the lay person to understand the argument for implementing a verifiable system. Its an anathema.

Anyone who argues for this is either a case of sour grapes or anti-government/anti-democracy.

Also can anyone please clarify how one one can go about taking part in this process, wasn't clear to me from the article.

It's a fluff piece.

The govt will invite some unknown or well paid experts, and get a clean bill of security. Simple.
