tsa-worker-sentenced-for-falsifying-reports

According to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, Robert Wilson, 51, of Ellenwood, Ga. will be doing four months in federal prison for falsifying records.

From about November 2004 to January 2005, Wilson filed at least eight inspection reports with TSA that contained false information. For example, Wilson falsely claimed that he inspected gates that were in fact closed and inaccessible due to construction. Wilson also falsely reported that he had made an inspection of an airline to ensure its compliance with security regulations. Wilson also falsely reported that he performed some inspections with TSA employees who, according to time and attendance records, were not on duty at the time.

From the Register:

A US defence department advisory board has warned of the danger that American war robots scheduled for delivery within a decade might be riddled with malicious code. The kill machines will use software largely written overseas, and it is feared that sinister forces might meddle with it in production, thus gaining control of the future mechanoid military.
