History
Dominion Voting Systems Corporation was founded in 2002 in Toronto, by John Poulos and James Hoover. In May 2010, Dominion acquired Premier Election Solutions (formerly Diebold Election Systems, Inc.) from Election Systems & Software (ES&S). ES&S had just acquired Premier from Diebold and was required to sell off Premier by the United States Department of Justice over anti-trust concerns.[1][2][3] In June 2010, Dominion acquired Sequoia Voting Systems.[4]
US 2020 election

The company was subjected to extensive attention following the election,[5] at which then-president Donald Trump was defeated by Joe Biden - equipment manufactured by Dominion was used to process votes in twenty-eight states, including the close battleground (swing) states of Wisconsin and Georgia. In this election, accusations of all kinds manipulation were discussed and documented, not just related to Dominion voting machines. If accusations of manipulated vote counts in favor of Biden by the Dominion systems were true, then it should be noted that as any other electronic equipment, these devices can be hacked by third parties.
Fox News
Dominion sued Fox News for factually incorrect reporting,[6] the ruling being the largest known media settlement for defamation in U.S. history; at about 787.5 million USD.[7]
Threats against American Thinker
Dominion send their legal team against the American Thinker blog, explaining they believe "that their client has been the victim of defamatory statements", when American Thinker published articles that were critical of Dominion.[8][9] The matter received commercially-controlled media coverage.[10][11][12][13]
