Alright - *could* a developer create an extremely unsafe backdoor to allow an exploit in this unlikely scenario? Sure. You can create backdoors in any system. Just because I *could* build a papier-mache unicorn, does it mean there is one standing in my front yard?

This is exactly how the conversation went yesterday. I pointed out that if Dominion machines have developers creating backdoors like this, it would be discovered in a code security audit. That's the way real world software development works for applications with high profile security concerns.

So the individual I was conversing with said there was no way Dominion code was audited. So then I posted links to federal government documents published under Trump that contained a code audit of Dominion software.

So then the individual asserted that they may be audited, but that the code deployed was different than the audited codebase. At that point, I gave up.

And let's not lose sight of the fact, this mysterious batch file (whose contents have not been posted online - and I'm not counting someone scrolling over fuzzy text) is not what Lindell promised. This is a classic bait and switch.
