Some of the nasty results of these hidden y2k glitchs would be mangled data, truncated records, pieces of missing information, even to compliant systems there could be nested deep in the world's computer code it would look like something had been eating thousands of tiny holes in all the world's data. If possible, what kind of instructions would the embeds be recieving if the software gives bogus info to it?

just a thought.
