Secure systems do not use USB. If a system has a USB, it can be compromised. (media.patriots.win)

If a system has any way of getting data into/out of the system, it can be compromised. How exactly would you get the vote tallies and audit trail without I/O?

There are ways, but they are not as easy.

Not hard. Not a new technology, only not off the shelf stuff a kid could put together and sell to counties for big markups.

My point is there's nothing inherently insecure about USB. Having a Windows machine running on a secure network with autorun enabled is the problem. It could have just as easily happened with a CD or DVD or floppy.

Yes, CD and DVD are same problem.

Problem is also that even with autorun off, it only takes one person to inert a USB and run something on the network.

Even if Biden got such a big margin that he actually won and there was no cheating -- the chaos of this election is a BIG win for China which has been telling its population for decades that "democracy is bad, and elections are chaos."

I think you have to be naive to think they were not trying to mess things up. It is also pretty clear that we made it easy for them.
