Targeting Diebold with Electronic Civil Disobedience
Why are these memos controversial? Read the excerpts and see for yourself, then read the campaign update for the latest news.
How to get the files: Note that the location of the documents may change, but this page will always have the current links. In case Diebold takes down this page, bookmark http://cultcom.com/mirror.html or http://web.umr.edu/~gabriels/diebold.html . You must currently copy and paste the URL because Diebold has attacked our right to deep-link to the memos. We are looking for help setting up a deep-link mirror in a non-US country.

Why War? believes that what we are doing is legal though we see it as an issue of electronic civil disobedience we believe it is Diebold which is abusing copyright law in an attempt to shut down free speech and the democratic process. The four criteria of “fair use” copyright law are the purpose of the use, the nature of the copyrighted work, the substantiality of the portion used and the effect of the use upon the potential market of the copyrighted work. We believe the publication of these documents is integral to the function of the democratic process. The memoranda themselves are not marketable products, and in this case we believe the nature of the work, which threatens elections occurring in 37 states, outweighs the need to selectively excerpt portions of the documents. If there is anything the American people have a right to know, it is how their votes are being counted.
