I don't think we're big on prosecuting frauds. We just declare them too big to fail.

Somewhat seriously, the inability to account for billions of dollars in cash and property dwarfs the antics of d-bags like this guy. We've also got issues of our own that we can't address, like faulty electronic components and faulty computer chips (or versions made to very low specifications) being installed in our high-tech, super-expensive systems.

Issues like this seem like they are more effectively addressed at the user level. Reminds me of the Warlock system that we used. While that was not ineffective due to malice, it was nevertheless ineffective. After repeatedly hitting IEDs with it on and while using it as directed and after having it inspected twice, we finally reached the conclusion that they weren't worth the interference with our radios (which they weren't supposed to interfere with). Rather than haggling with the manufacturer, we just stopped using them.
