Taiwan no longer stealing Wii's

Apparently TaiPei Airport has been yoinking Nintendo Wii's when they pass through the station, but don't worry! Not anymore!

Public outcries for leniency from the NCC (National Communications Commission) have made them take it a bit easier with their regulations. The NCC checks all electronic goods passing through to see if they are considered health hazards and as of yet have not officially tested the Wii to certify it as being hazard free.

Howard Shyr of the NCC says in regards to the Wii-Scare:
There was an incident in the past where the use of wireless microphones near the airport nearly affected aviation safety. Unexpected consequences might occur with unregulated products.
So check this out. I can paraphrase his sentences here as "this one time this guy had this thing that almost did stuff".

From my paraphrased sentence sure that could have been shady with all sorts of malicious intent. You know, or it could have just been a guy with a microphone, or a Wii... traveling through the airport. I guess I'm just not safety savvy.
