Re:"Non-cooperative" is a technical term (Score 1)

I'm pretty sure non-cooperative doesn't even technically mean the person doesn't want to be found. It simply means that the person is not a participant in the system. In a cooperative system, everyone the robots were looking for might be wearing a transmitter. Thus everyone without a transmitter, even if they were standing on a hilltop, waving a flag, and shouting at the top of their lungs, would be non-cooperative. Cooperative means that you get to define the actions of the subject, whatever those might be, while non-cooperative means you don't.
