When and why did the US switch to these voting machines that are the subject of ongoing lawsuits and reports of unlawful "updates"?

I keep seeing comments about how Canada avoided a similar fate because of its strict use of paper ballots; the US must have changed its system to include these electronic and possibly not airgapped machines.

My voting location has paper ballots counted by scanners (it's not practical or accurate/reliable to count that number of ballots by human hand).
If there's a question, just rescan the ballots. Nothing's perfect, but this (IMHO) is about as good as it gets.
The only change I would make is to have ranked choice voting.
