Is Hari Prasad an ethical hacker and be set free?
By

Hyderabad: When V Hari Prasad, the man behind the Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) tampering fiasco, said he deliberately displayed the EVM number on the TV in order to show that the original machine was tampered with, was he at the right or wrong side of ethics? Should he be allowed to go scot free?
Well he is not done yet. Prasad announced in a press conference that he would continue to fight his battle against the EVMs, which the Election Commission of India asserts are tamper-proof. Prasad added that he had done no wrong and had just highlighted the flaws in the EVMs.

This came after he was arrested for the alleged theft of an EVM. He was kept in the police custody for eight days. While he denied stealing the EVM, he said, "someone came to me and asked me to show how an EVM could be tampered with." He claims that he returned the machine within 3-4 hours after displaying how the device can be tampered with and added that this was filmed and telecast on a private news channel.
Prasad went on to request the techies of the nation to raise their voices and expose the EVM flaws.
Reacting to his arrest, he said, "I am unfazed and instead I am more inspired to continue the battle against the vulnerablilty of EVMs and will be in continuous touch with the Election Commission of India (ECI)."
While the mud slacking is expected to continue from the both sides, the question here is whether Prasad's action be taken under law, or will he be given the tag of an ethical hacker and set free?

1: Mr Hari Prasad was arrested for the alleged
the theft of EVM. Who had loughed FIR for
stealing the EVM at that day as EVM was
handedover to the responsible Government
Officers only. His statement is wrong or
right, it should be telecast before the
public.

2: Hari Prasad should be thanked for exposing
the flaw instead of being prosecuted. I was
wondering how come the congress won with such
a majority ( whatever little it got) in the
last general election. More than any one
else, the opposition should rise to protect
Hari Prasad & he should be public given a
hearing.

3: Politics has flawed everything, and there's
no way to correct it..... those who tried are
either dead or behind the bars, so now the
only option left is to delete the world and
start making it from the scratch, removing
all the mistakes we've committed.....
creation of politics for eg.

4: History repeats itself.... many ethical
hackers have been falsely accused and were
put behind bars because of the information
they posses.... I think all ethical hackers
should try to form a union against this act
of the Government otherwise who knows who
will be the next to be put behind bars....

5: If any security person demonstrates something
in public.. and govt arrests the person for
showing the technical fault of govt. EVM...
its very pathetic and it means only banning
the use of technology in the country and
arresting security researchers like this
showing the power and on false charges... its
very disheartening for ethical hackers in
india... as law in the country is much
misused...

6: Dear Editor
I just realized that how far ,,people would go to sully or post comments on with a hidden agenda,,like for example
some one below posted comments ""Evms kill tamils"" ,,i was a bit shocked ,,also there are personal attacks ,,like someone commenting on me about Congress agent or Foreign agent.
This shows it is getting murky here,,and shows how people are misusing the website.I suggest silicon india to moderate the comments ,,just like other media do,,like Economic Times Of India.
I want to say loud and clear,,I love India,,it is the country that I was born,,Iam not affilliated to any political party in particular ,,I make comments on merit,,I have also commented on CWG games,,too.
I have full respect towards Indias government,,becuase it is elected by people of India,,be it BJP,,CONGRESS,,Left all are the same.I want India to develop,,be strong,,her armed forces looked after ,,respected,,her institutions respecetd,,her dignity upheld and held high.
I repeat India is a great country,,it has a billion plus people,,with far more important and critical things.I have given examples to make an impact on India ,,positively. A recent survey indicates ,,Indians ranked themselves a Happy lot when a survey was conducted.
that shows Indian democracy and its strength.
Today India is a beacon to the world,,India connected Africa (Pan African E-network) under the current government,,for which it won a prize from europe.Indian forces keep peace in Trouble torn african Countries.India helps IMF with a contribution (10 billion dollars),,moreover India is a hope ,,in Global Financial crisis,,as the world looks to its consumer to sell goods.
I feel proud about India and hopeful for the future.For those who think otherwise,,you can emigrate ,,to other places or countries and still who are critical ,,there is always rest of world ,,if you dislike India.
But I love India and will never allow anyone to hurt it.

thing indian is good for instance "Indian "
national congress, which is a party that has
divided nation , and is teacher of all other
parties , and continue to further divide
country by muslim appeasement and cast

8: He(Mr.Hari Prasad) is absolutely correct that
he has done NO WRONG and had just highlighted
the flaws in EVM's.
That should go in his credits and he should be encouraged to sort out the flaws in EVM's.
Personally i think that every indian political parties were aware of this fact.It's just the power of money that who RULES the indian politics OR may be congress are tampering with the EVM's after the election . MAY BE

12: its not arresting a person, but what you say
about the flaws in EVMS, dont you think these
can give power to wrong people on the name of
elections? then what will happen?
India is developed not because political parties but its because of some great brains such as tata, reliance, etc. Better to stop discuss about arrest and ask how the EVMs are not 100% secured?

and ruling party M>Ps should be prosecuted.
The election commission which knows
undoubtedly of the technical tampering
possibilities of EVMs should be hung
including the Chief Election Commissioners of
the past and the present.

16: Every Electronic gadget can be hacked, those
who know embedded software can do this ,
there is no point if they change the OS of
EVM and run Packman on that , only in this
case this is "EVM" , thats why it makes news
, popularity, thing is that who is going to
do that in Election , from where Politicians
will get technical person with enough
knowledge to manipulate data inside EVM, how
this can be done without tempering the "case"
of the machine? the EC will be monitoring the
process of voting , will not the vote count
in the EVM will be resetted prior to voting ?

29:Dear Rama anne,
If there is a fault with any of the govt agency/its working/its gadgets, please suggest any other effective method to bring it to the attention of the govt as well as public.
Note that if without the public knowing it, anything that is brought to the notice of the govt will be burried deep down, probably along with the person's body who exposed it!
So I think Mr.Hariprasad has done the right thing only and he needs the support of all Indians, not just techies as requested by him.
Unfortunately, our attitude will be, as long as it does not affect a person, he does not fully analyse the situation.
I need not tell you here your condition, as you are sitting in Australia!

"with a duplicate or whatever EVM machine"
many times. As if you don't know that an
original Machine was HACKED by the talented
man. Had it not been an original Machine the
ECI would not have called the police. And
living out of INDIA does not make you an "All
knower of the fact". We live here, we know
how nasty the politics has become. We know
how votes are tampered. And if some one has
taken the initiation to (at least try to)
stop it then he is being stopped at the
behest of "THEFT"? What you would to tell the
fact if ur voice is not heard? Definitely go
to Media. That man is DAMN correct and

1 - EVMs are not the property of Election Commission, it belongs to the people of India.
2 - This matter is a matter of national security as those EVMs were used to elect a govt and if tampering is feasible in them then the whole election process becomes defunct and corrupt people with the help of foreign intelligence agencies can do it easily installing their stooges.
3 - EC is appointed by corrupt politicians. Case in point - Naveen Chawla who was hand maiden of congress during emergency and Gill who became a minister post-retirement in a congress govt.
So Dorbala is 100% right.

38: Dear Rama,
You are again sadly mistaken. the power which you conferred onto EC is available only when election has been declared and in that constituency only for the period of elections. Not after that.
Secondly, EC is appointed by GOI only.
And your assertion show us that you stay in dictator monrachy regime like australia, no need to write the location,hence do not expect you to understand about democracy.

42: rama anne you seem to be a voluntary agent of
EC. If H. Prasad has worked on a duplicate
machine then why he is arrested for stealing
a genuine machine? From the fact that he is
arrested for acquiring a genuine machine this
argument is wrong. How much you get for
advocating so enthusiastically for EC.
Remember H. Prasad is also an equally
responsible citizen of this country. I have
noticed that such machines were in use in
other advanced countries and soon they were
withdrawn. Why?

45: Hari Prasad has just exposed the
vulnerablities of EVM. If he had any wrong
intentions...he would have approached any
political party and they would have bribed
him with enough money to help them in next
elections. Everybody already knows how
corrupt leaders are and they can go to any
extent to secure wins in elections...they are
just not concerned about the country. However
Hari just exposed the EVM faults in open. It
was the right thing to do because had he
approached any govt agency regarding
this...they would have just covered the case
as it is as if nothing ever happened. So he
is absolutely right and justified in his
manner.

47: Jai Ho Bharth Ki, Mera Bharath Mahan. There
is nothing Right or Wrong. Good or Bad, it is
all our thinking make it so if you do not
believe this, then you will be made to
believe as we see in Media today they feature
IPL, IT raid and tomorrow they show action
has been initiated against and either the
person is mission or the reports are gone or
the evidences are lost .Let us not name
people. We know where we stand in honesty,
corruption levels world at large and in India
in particular. The EVM prone to fraud has
been in news over years, not the first time.
We better close our eyes and go on, when
Great Bishma remained a mute witness to the
Draupathi stripping, we too. Since nothing
else could be done, whether the fact remains
EVEM is fraudulent in use and counting in US
or India. Let things go on, we remain silent
observers and pass on , why to invite wrath
of the vested interest parties , and then
none will rescue us .What happened to the BBC
exposure of Cricket Match fixing in news.
Today news is underworld has threatened the
players families .Do not imagine we are in
ram rajya we are in ravana rajya all over the
world. None on the earth can raise a voice
against any seasoned politician, or political
party or the so called underworld ruling the
world over engaged in making easy money,
extortions and black mail. For them it is
only a cinematic approach to eliminate
people, reports in no time the evidences too.
Where is the question of our showing a demo
to election commission , who have been
permitted to approve those EVMS by the ruling
parties themselves .Let us be calm and have
faith in God almighty , There four stages in
man’s life , boyhood, youth, middle age,
old age, so too, there are four stages of his
acquisition of wisdom
1.To be trained by parents, teachers, elders, being led, guided, regulated, warned, reprimanded.
2.To be eager to establish happiness and justice in society, to know the world, it’s worth and values.
3.To pour out energies to reform, reconstruct the human community
4.The realization that the world is beyond redemption by human effort, that one can at best save oneself.

like you then this world will finish a
million years before it is slated to. What I
feel is the guy in question has done the
right thing the wrong way. Owning an EVM is
illegal in the first place. Second doing
R&D on it without due permission from the
Govt. is another fault. Third hiding the
identity of the person who brought the EVM is
the third fault. He would have been better
off if he had approached the Election
Commission first along with the press.

to do these things you need to be of a good heart to start with .the question ""how pure is your heart"" ""do you pray for yourself every morning and ignore the world or attend to a fellow human being before you pray"" God likes people who attend to others before attending to himself.

3.Only when he succeeds in convincing everyone in the meeting there is an issue to worry about ,,could it be briefed to media ,,and the ec can announce steps to safeguard
4.None of these steps are taken ,, so I can say clearly ,,he along ,,with his colleagues ,,has broken law,,and the foreigners need to be extradited ,,the election commission should file a case in the indian court against them.
5.Just because ,,a ten ruppe can be forged,,does not mean ,,i can go live on TV and do a demo of it no way.I urge silicon india to stop publishing this article again and again .Also there are enemies of India from hostile neighbours ,,who are taking this as an opportunity and post mesages ,,so just a few post messages ,,does not mean anything as Silicon India does not check identity or origin of the person who posts comments.Such issues are best decided inside india as it is India sensitive

Why are you so adamant on hiding things? You are trying to influence people by using your so-called educational qualifications, which again along with your other assertions are suspect, because of the language which you have used. An engineer is supposed to have more command on it.
Anyway, Hariprasad as an Indian Citizen has all the right to expose a crime. Please read the Indian laws, they specifically empower an Indian citizen or rather have made it a duty of an Indian citizen to expose the crime.
He is a law abiding citizen, it is only those who are criticising him for doing his constitutional duty and putting him in prison are guilty of crime and courts will sort it out.
Just wait and watch.
We, in India, still have judiciary unlike Australia.

He even showed exactly how the stored data can be manipulated.

63: We respect his knowledge, But the way this
operation carried out is not legal &
ethical.
He could have sent his report to government to review or had released to media without sharing the sensitive information.
By exposing everything to the world,he made the devices more vulnerable.
I also have doubt over his research, he replaced machines 7 segment display which can be manipulated wireless. I dont think this can take place in real life.No party worker can have so much access.
His website concludes that EVM should be scrapped & replaced by paper based system. If these people are genuine scientist then they would have suggested more secured system rather than scrapping them...
But yeh it hurts when we see geeks,scientists behind bars...

64:Mr. Hari Prashad looks to have done the right
thing.This would be an eye opener for the
Government & they can put up most
stringent security in EVMs.....The legal
procedure told by my fellow colleagues is
right but it is too much time
consuming........Please tell me who(Common
man in particular) has the time or resources
on this face of Earth to go to ministers
& convince them for doing
something.......Taking the course of media is
the right thing & a quick fix.....We can
read the above news only because the person
approached the media......otherwise who knows
what could have happened..?

Sam Pitroda came all the way from USA two decades to get an audience with late sri Indira Gandhi and Rajiv and he did it ushered telecom revolution with C-DOT.
not in this case ,,hari prasad was not alone ,,he was well fundeed ,,and has two colleagues from USA ,,who were present or coordinated with him.So comparing a common man to Hari Prasad does not make sense.I do not think in this case NEW Delhi is not accessible ,,not in this instance.
Common man of india works hard,,eats ,,goes to sleep,,and starts all over ,,waiting for a better india ,,where his children will have a brighter future ,,he is not thinking of consiparcies or thoeries,,he has a heart of gold and very sincere

66: Hi Rama,
I think you have a very static idea about India and Indian Politics. It is changing every day with situtation going from bad to worse. Every political party have a few people good on paper and this list is getting smaller day-by-day with each politician getting implicated in one or other scandel.
Taking the approch as suggested by you has got a very rare chance of seeing the light of day. The endless problem of highlighting the wrong-doing of government work and machineries can be seen by the plight of murders taking place of the wishle-blowers (who took the fight using the RTI route) around the country.
I am not justifying that Hari prasad has done right by showing the Demo of the vulnerability of the machine in details, but I support him in his effort to expose the machine through media. Because if he had taken any other route this news may not have been news. The case would be shut down and the people would not know if their vote really counts or not in electing a particular candidate of their choice. Atleast this exposure should make technocrats or EC to come up with some mechanism to have a fair election or shut the gaps in the machine to make it full proof.
Now about law and legality, I know you know a lot about law and history of the country politics. So you will also know about the various sting operations that take place everyday in exposing various political leaders and office bearers and also the after effect of all those operations. So here there is two law - one for powerful and at most time corrupt and others who cannot afford the law. For Hari prasad, if he is smart enough - can come out of the clutches of law and either fight a battle with a vast majority of population supporting him or be a puppet of the ruling mass a forget ever, that the he had ever found any problem in the EVM machine at first place. The future depends on how we react to the news and take things forward. Just burying the news as a mere stunt, we should have the EVM machines again recheched and verified by qualified experts from with-in and outside the country and get the, problem if any solved, so that the common mass have their faith back on Democracy.

Election Commission and Supreme Court are
independent of politics.. I can just laugh on
him... No one is independent of politicians..
Otherwise Afzal Guru would have been hanged
long back after prosecuted... Supreme Court
is not able to do any thing against political
inaction and criminal of India is still
alive.. Do you know what happened to Shri
T.N. Sheshan (Cheif Election Commissioner)? I
am sure only few remember him...
Now coming to Hari Prasad, he is a whistle blower.. Do you know one of the whistle blower in Bihar, was MURDERED in day light.. coz he exposed government corruption.. God save Hari Prasad... There are still few braves on Indian soil.. Hats off to Hari... and..... EVM..

what happened in Bihar,,we know ,,Bihar always have had a law and order problem and it is improving,,comparing the incident to this one is laughable.T.N Seshan was given full power as an election commissioner.
The main problem ,,everyone in india tries to become a politician ,,either they think too much ,,or too little ,,or perhaps not much work.Common man of India goes about his duties everyday.I also know are in hyderabad correct
