It is scary to read, in the context of potential Ukranian elections, that the problem with online voting would be the possibility of an attack like the one that happened against Kyivstar phones in december 2023, making the internet inaccessible for 48 hours.

Sure, access attacks are worrisome, but the dangers and attack surfaces on online voting are a lot bigger (and discrete) than that. Assuming that online voting is secure and the only problem is having access to it is dangerous, especially in a country facing the problems Ukraine is living, and attacks from Russia that has a track record in digital attacks and electoral influence.
