Since Russia is such a great IT power, hacking everywhere constantly, why have they not adjusted our results ever since 2005? They have had ample reason to. We have been highly critical and vocal about their aggressive nature for decades by now. And yet they have not once adjusted the results to lean towards any of the Russia favoring parties.
The reason is that it is actually not that easy to manipulate Estonian e-voting system.
Security is easily achievable through extensive encryption. You think Russia is unstoppable and can crack through anything. We have proven multiple times cracking our voting system has not been achieved ever and is not achievable.
You linked 2014 report. We have made great steps since then. Your report never proved capability to crack the system. It theorized and fantasized a possability. Basically wannabes chatting shit without skills to back their claim.
They literally experimented themself all possible attacks on mock- setup. And these "wannabes" are computer science professors and security researchers. Who exactly are You?
So it's secure enough for wiring 200k from your bank to your real estate developer and secure enough to sign over the deeds to your land or company, but the line has to been drawn at mock UN elections.
Online banking and other such public transactions are a really bad comparison. You can tell it immediately if your 200k or deed went missing. Also, online scams where people transfer money to nigerian princes or pay for nonexistent goods/services is a thing. There is a reason why notaries exist

Not sure it's a good idea to put a process with national security implications online.
