In AZ, they are refusing to release the routers used in the election to the auditors, citing that it would 'leak sensitive data about voters social security numbers and medical information.' Really? Those that know me know that I am no stranger to tech... and anyone who knows the first thing about routers knows that routers don't record any such data. The logs simply show timestamps of who connected to and from the router in the form of IP addresses. The data that passes through routers is not logged, as routers would need massive storage space to do such a thing, which they don't have, nor is there any technical reason why a router should do so, but only a million reasons why it should not and does not.
So we clearly see that they don't want anyone to see what the router logs will tell: that is who was connected to the routers and when. Clearly, they are hiding something because the reasons that they give for failing to provide the routers despite court order makes exactly zero sense.
I especially find all of this strange, considering these routers were supposedly not connected to the internet at all in the first place... to which I would ask, 'why even have routers if there is no network connection?' Having all the machines on a router - even if it were just on a local network is a HUGE point of vulnerability, not to mention, we have no way of knowing if they are being honest about them not being connected to the internet because they refuse to provide the routers in direct defiance of court orders, all while making up non-sense reasons as to why they don't want to turn them over to the auditors.
Suspicious? VERY.
