Impact of January GPS glitch on US military slowly being revealed

> "the Air Force initially blamed a contractor for defective software..."

> Since GPS' inception, there has never been a breach of GPS.

What about those contractors messing things up? Some could have malicious intentions. Today they make a mistake, tomorrow they make a mistake on purpose, who knows,...

But seriously what does he mean by "breach" ? Does he mean jamming? Or does he mean someone unauthorized using the higher accuracy signal? Or maybe someone uploading unauthorized software onto the satellites? I guess it doesn't mean anything, it is just PR hand waiving...

That would January ... 2010.
