How to Hack an Election

Gary Short Gary Short

Think your democracy is safe? Better think again. In this session I'll demonstrate the techniques that the 'black hat data scientists' use to get the result they want from any election or referenda. In this entertaining talk, I'll demonstrate techniques, both at the macro level - how to attack an election systemically - and at the micro level - how I can manipulate individuals to do exactly as I want them to do.

*Fully updated since the talk was given at NDC Oslo 2019.
