I run along the Thames Embankment (London Bridge to Westminster via St Paul's Cathedral and back) at lunch time and during the St Paul's Protest Camp my smartphone would misbehave when I ran past it. It would also need a reboot on my return for it to make/receive calls again. Never happened anywhere else or at anytime else. 2+2 equals buggy Stringray deployment?
Having read the article I think security and Jet Blue got this right. It is more about Aditya testing positive for explosives than Ramadan.
The explosives specialist walked back into the room and asked me why my clothes were testing positive for explosives.
If I was a security official I would run through the documented procedures and, if in doubt, escalate up the chain too - TSA Supervisor, NYPD, FBI, Homeland Security.
If I was in charge of an airline and was informed that a passenger had tested positive for explosives, even if accidentally, I would not want them on my plane that day either.
So if these avian flu strains are so virulent and deadly, why aren't we seeing dead birds everywhere? Maybe because the mutations that make the virus airborne also reduce its affinity for avian receptors. http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/349926/description/Mutation_makes_H5N1_flu_lose_its_grip . So now interest in H5N1 is waning we need find a new strain of avian flu to scare up some juicy research grants. Queue H7N9.
I see I'm not the only one fed up with these "Tests show that X could cause Y disaster so please give us Z" stories. Where Z is typically more research money.
Well, tests show that my boot could cause your ass to be kicked so please give me your money.

I was at the event and one of the first things he said was that spammers must have no morals in order to succeed. Hence I was quite skeptical about his facts and figures.
He struck me as a very nice guy but I always got the impression he was holding something back. Perhaps he wasn't a reformed spammer at all and he just wanted to socially engineer his way into Ironport's confidence in order to improve his spamming techniques!
Some opponents of Open Source bleat about corporate programmers losing jobs because of free software alternatives, but what about the corporate users?
Surely, with finite funds, corporate users have more choice with Open Source and so are able to 'do more' with their dollar and hence are able to be more productive.
It seems that this case it trying to set a precedent and as such perhaps Mario Monti is taking his time to get it right.
Following the talks [with Ballmer], Mr Monti said: "It is essential to have a precedent which will establish clear principles for the future conduct of a company with such a strong dominant position." - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/3563697.stm

So we've got a multi trillion year head start to populate the Universe?

...financial services degauss then physically shred the drives. You get a nice certificate too. It's extreme but cheaper than a data leak.

Saves money until it's hit by a zero day vulnerability exposing your home network. Best to keep them apart IMO.

Better productivity = better economy = more jobs?
Just the market in action, IMO.
This is fine until the AV service gets hit with a big outbreak and *all* emails with attachements are delayed by several hours.
Better to keep the virus checking in-house IMHO.
Pizzahut offering Spam topping? Spam and Pinapple maybe?
:-)
Or perhaps Spam, Pinapple, Spam, Eggs, Chips and Spam.
With extra Spam.
