Anonymity is not the problem (who you are). When people are voting we need confidentiality (what you do).
When you go to the polling station, you may come across your neighbor or friends. You recognize them (no anonymity), but you don't know what they're voting for (this is confidentiality).
Most barriers are only mental, in people's minds
Maybe, but I don't mind comments. As long as the responses aren't too aggressive, I'm fine with it.
And I don't mind bad faith, as long as it doesn't involve violence.
Electronic voting can be a good thing, depending on how it's implemented.
It could encourage young people to get more involved and participate in political life (the low turnout for votes and elections is worrying).
Technologies like blockchain (no, I'm not talking about cryptocurrency) can bring security and confidentiality.
As long as this solution can exist alongside traditional voting (by mail or at the polling station), I don't see any problem.
Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the German post.
The "Digitale Gesellschaft" (digital society) publishes mostly in German, rarely in French and unfortunately never in English.
Similarly, Mäder Jörg's interpellation mentioned in the article is only available in FR/DE/IT.
I'll try to translate the title in English for the next time :)
Haha ! good question, probably never happened...
That's precisely the nature of progress: to create what doesn't yet exist.
Once again, you confuse authority with discipline. What is ruled by consensus don't need to be enforced by authority.
You're confusing anarchism with anomie..
Anarchism is not the absence of rules, but rules agreed between everyone outside any form of authority.
The most discreet and anonymous among them, because anarchists should never fall into the cult of personality.
Many people don't like Discord either and prefer FOSS distributed solution like [matrix] or XMPP ¯_(ツ)_/¯
