Problems
Google and Facebook have experimented with Liquid democracy ("google votes") but then, subsequently, subverted the process by "suggesting" votes and delegations to users based on their ranking algorithms and moreover "based on users previous behavior" (creating a feedback loop or self-fulfilling prophecy they can control).
The German Pirate party has been undermined by the Verfassungsschutz. Key issue was the insertion and replacement of the crucial position of treasurer of the party.[citation needed]
The process of voting may be corrupted by information control and monetary control. A democratic voting system should be coupled with its own (non-fiat-convertable) cryptocurrency and censorship resistant media platform, based on distributed, redundant storage.
LiquidFeedback
Algorithmic delegated voting systems (Liquid democracy) are commonly implemented using liquidFeedback, a software combining aspects of representative and direct democracy. The software is designed to promote civic engagement towards those that may be hesitant to have their voice heard.
LiquidFeedback has been ported to support a p2p based blockchain.
