    I think the change would make it accessible to non-admin users

        That’s bad and Mbin should change it.

          Maybe. There are likely both *bin users who agree and disagree. Even if they all agreed and removed it, though, there isn’t much stopping others from running older versions, patching it back in, or even starting entirely new software that does the same. The fundamental issue, the false privacy of the voting system, remains.
