@arstechnica I'm trying to figure out why this master spy apparently didn't expect hidden cameras in a high-tech facility with govt connections.
@arstechnica On top of it, he used the company's own self-logging tools to work out the plan, ensuring that he'd provide abundant evidence against himself.
I'll just say this: He ain't no James Bond.

@arstechnica Somehow a supected spy was caugth in a camera that was already placed behind a TV... calling it another AI bulls*it to stay relevant...
