Minnesota Driver's License goes RFID
So, I'm sitting at the kitchen table drinking my coffee and listening to the local news station when my "GLP Radar" goes off. Minnesota is getting the "Enhanced" RFID driver's license starting next Monday, making us the 5th state to get these.

Maybe for some folks this is a real convenience, but I sure the heck wont be signing for one of these damn things..no way!

And then there is this quote from the article

"The cards do not hold personal information, but send a signal to a secure system allowing agents to pull up one's biographic and biometric data."

Just what the hell do they mean by biometric data.. I don't like the sounds of this 1 bit!

I was hopping you were going to say, MN is the 3rd state to legalize marijuana, or med marijuana! I looked it up, does that mean we don't have to buy a passport?

Meaning.. if you have prints on file they will be accessible via the chip.

You can always microwave it. Or just use a sharp knife to disable it.

...or if you don't want to kill the chip and just stop it from being accessed until you allow it, this is an option.
