Digital Cheating - Top Chess Player Banned for Using Bluetooth To Cheat

The second ranked chess player in the All India Chess Federation was banned for cheating with a bluetooth phone that he had sewn into his hat. As technology becomes more compact and wireless, I suppose we can expect more forms of digital cheating.

An Indian chess player was banned Tuesday from competition for 10 years after he was caught using a Bluetooth headset sewn into a cap earlier this month to get help from a computer. The All India Chess Federation slapped the 10-year sanction on Umakant Sharma, who had been using a Bluetooth device stitched into a cap he typically pulled down over his ears. According to the federation, Sharma's accomplices relayed moves made by a computer chess program to him via the Bluetooth headset. Bharat Singh Chauhan, the AICF treasurer, showed the cap and Bluetooth device at a meeting convened Tuesday that decided Sharma's punishment. (informationweek)
