In its investigation, ABC brought 10 Apple iPad tablets through security checkpoints and one was swiped by a TSA agent. They used the Find My iPhone feature to track it down to the agent’s house. Check out the unsettling video to see the full story.

Pilfering (or more correctly, STEALING) seems to be rife amongst these sorts of professions. A friend had a bag cut in transit and an expensive camera went missing.

How would you install an alarm on your ipad or phone like they used in the article about the TSA ?

Brian linked to the app in his article. It’s called find my iPhone but it works for all iOS devices including iPad, iPhones and iPods.

I use it all the time to find my iPod when I lose it in the house.

That’s insane. 10% chance of losing your gadgets. That’s insane but not shocking considering the people I notice they hire. Entry level with little experience normally.
