Armed, buff tools could find lots of action in OMNI. (but not from me)

Seriously, wide scale tampering of human food products is a real issue. I'm not normally a paranoid person, but if I were a terrorist, I'd make a probe into the system that looked exactly like this one.
Relatively recently in the UK there was an issue with contaminated petrol that affected petrol sold in some supermarkets most notably Tesco. This caused engine damage to a lot of customers cars (at least thousands). I always thought it could be a malicious action, maybe by someone who wanted to cause damage to Tesco or the petrol supplier or some misguided environmentalist who wanted to punish car drivers.

But whatever people's motives it does seem a lot of damage can be caused by contamination.
