What an absolute clusterfuck. I work at a multinational company who's IT department (over my objection) installs Trend Micro on all user end points. I'll be sending this the department head's way, Trend might lose some business over this

I'm not sure the GIT applies here, it is my understanding that the GIT says that for any formal system (i.e. sentences derived by repeated application of rules of derivation to axioms) that is able to represent the Peano arithmetic, has no deterministic decision procedure, due to the ability of a sentence to self-reference. Is that accurate, or is GIT broader than I thought?
It's an inconvenience, but the thing that makes me most averse to that system is that it presumes guilt. Here in the US, cops are not allowed (though enforcement is lax) to detain you for any reason without reasonable suspicion that you've committed a crime.
