Bullshit. 2FA is secure enough for online banking, for access to HIPPA, and for my brokerage and cryto-exchange accounts. How much effort do you think some nefarious entity is willing to expend to gain access to ONE vote?
Being emailed a link is meaningless. I can create an email account in two seconds, pretend to be you, then "verify" I am you with that email.
No, you can't. The email address would be part of the information you provide when appearing in person at a government office to set up or renew your voter account. Changing your email address would have be done while logged in to your account. This is the normal way of doing business online, and it's more than good enough to secure ONE vote.
No it isn't. None of my banks or brokerages require me to use it and I don't because it doesn't add much security. It's security theater.
How much effort do you think some nefarious entity is willing to expend to gain access to ONE vote?
How many records of personal (unchangeable) information did China hack from OPM? 23 million.
The email address would be part of the information you provide when appearing in person at a government office to set up or renew your voter account.
Then I will appear in person pretending to be you. But more likely I won't need to do that, I will do it by mail or internet and that's much lower effort. Like you said, how much effort do I want to expend to get one vote? That's really your only protection against masquarading.
Changing your email address would have be done while logged in to your account.
None of that stops China from getting into 23 million accounts using personal information like mother's maiden name, city and date of birth, etc.
