Yeah over the north Atlantic there have been violations attempted for aircraft that received coast-in reroutes but didn't get the FMC programed before hitting an automatic reporting point. The charge is "incipient navigation blunder" which is crap because the aircraft is still hundreds of miles from the new turn and on the cleared course. I know that's not ACAARS pushing that info.
