Myth-busters shut down on RFID chips

Hope2601 Pt 10, Adam Savage and "The RFID Censorship Question" www.HOPE.net


And a friend of mine tells me he would bet his life they made a mistake when they said relieving ones self on electric fence is not harmful as well as this suppression.

Wounder how hackable are these RFIDs?

Not sure if they have or not Jawn. The vid just demonstrated the power behind the push for them.

They definitely want a cashless society which could be used to track everyone's moves and purchases.

All US passports now have one in them if i remember correctly. They can be so small now I would not be surprised if they are injected with childhood vaccinations one day. Perhaps even without public knowledge.

They have already been gathering children's DNA samples as well.

The government has your baby's DNA

" (CNN) -- When Annie Brown's daughter, Isabel, was a month old, her pediatrician asked Brown and her husband to sit down because he had some bad news to tell them: Isabel carried a gene that put her at risk for cystic fibrosis.

While grateful to have the information -- Isabel received further testing and she doesn't have the disease -- the Mankato, Minnesota, couple wondered how the doctor knew about Isabel's genes in the first place. After all, they'd never consented to genetic testing.

It's simple, the pediatrician answered: Newborn babies in the United States are routinely screened for a panel of genetic diseases. Since the testing is mandated by the government, it's often done without the parents' consent, according to Brad Therrell, director of the National Newborn Screening & Genetics Resource Center. "

This was back in 2003
