[quote:ClydeX:MV8yMDYzMTYwXzM0NzA5ODQ2XzkyMzFENUUw] [quote:Anonymous Coward 28513247:MV8yMDYzMTYwXzM0NzA5MzE2X0UzMTNDRTQ0] RFID is probably the most overblown conspiracy of them all. 90% of you already have rfid-chipped items and may not even know it. Got a passport issued in the past few years? RFID chipped. Credit card? RFID chipped. Contactless smart-travel card? RFID chipped. Bought clothing from any one of dozens of major clothing manufacturers? RFID chipped. Cell phones,on the other hand, and any pda or apple device, are massively worse with infinitely more tracking and eavesdropping capabality than humble, weak RFID, which has next to no capacity to track your or eavesdrop. [/quote] You're missing the forest for the trees. All of these items you listed, I have choice in. I can choose to not purchase them, or accept that these items are implanted and go on my merry way. I can remove the battery from my Blackberry any time I choose, or throw it off a cliff if I wish. The issue at hand is the potential governmental requirement of implantation IN YOUR PERSON - not some device or product - equating to the citizen being cataloged like cattle. As with the majority of things we now bitch about being wrong with our government, these will also be readily accepted by the masses under the guise of safety and security. [/quote]
Original Message
I have been discussing this technology with some friends and some people say absolutely not, it's not gonna happen, and I've also read everything I possibly could regarding the subject. Does anybody know anyone that's chipped? Military? Civilian? If you have nothing to hide, what's your opinion? How easily could these chips be disabled? I was told a stun gun could disable them.
