They sometimes do RFID tags or whatever so you don't have to actually do anything when you go through the toll, it's all on your account.

Figures, right? I posted this comment on your sift but it's been a couple days and I wanted to make sure it was seen.

"I don't see anything sinister about a group that sees a global governing body as being a necessity for globalization to work properly. I think we're being hit now by the problems of not doing that while still happily globalizing away (e.g. lead paint in toys, jobs moving overseas, stagnant/shrinking wages, etc.)"

Translation: Well, if we're gonna have corporations running the world, we might as well have what we think we need to be stupid and happy.... fluffy pillows and no bad joo-joo in our food, and a machine that clicks along nicely, and all the hard-workers as well, as long as they get paid well for being slaves by the people that invented and printed the money-Hell, RFID chippage and cameras everywhere, anywhere, is AOK in my book, I'm too distracted by what they tell me is going on to care anyhow.....

Nah dude, nothing sinister about being all they want you to be....Living a real life is for losers.....

Here's his full talk if you're interested in hearing about the pizza lady's questions. There's also a really funny part where he shows a slow mo of him busting his ass on a treadmill.

It's easily hackable, some students did it with a lap top and a reader then were able to clone the card, the security risk was if someone was then able to see you enter your pin. So if you have an rfid / smart card nevr use it with the pin!

That lady at the end loves her pizza.

EDIT: ahh, this is the same video as NordlichReiter's link above.

RFID needs to be MythBusted, if not aired on Discovery, then on youtube or elsewhere. This "chip" is a real concern.

Rfid is extremly weak. They can be cloned and ripped for us black hats out there.

They can be used against the manufactures for us white hats out there.

the site above has RFID, from there you have to chose which pill you take.

Papers please! Ve hef need ov identifikation komrad!

If you get a new passport, take a hammer to the RFID chip. Your passport will still be usable. Just when they try to use RFID, it won't work. They'll just do it the old fashioned way.

Rubber gloves anyone?

Seriously?

"RFID radio tracking"

You mean they're gonna install RFID readers on posts no more than 30 feet apart all throughout the country? I doubt it.

>> ^leveric:
Radio tracking sounds a bit scary, but what's wrong with biometric information? On file retinal scans seem like a nice way to help prevent identity theft.

That wouldn't be so bad if retinal scans would remain an elected process, not a compulsory one.

And so the New World Order begins. Do you have your National ID card? Have you been RFID chipped yet?

Actually, the technical gap between RFID and "Mind Control"
is not that great, given that the term "Mind Control" is
pretty generic, and includes things like shock collars. It
would not be difficult to use the energy picked up by passive RFID
chips to cause a electrical shock, rather than to transmit RF
back to the reader. In fact, the military have already
developed this type of device, based on biological principles.
In fact, it is easier to just use the energy to give a shock,
since no transmitting circuitry is necessary. The trick is to
position it properly to cause the most damage and pain in
the target...
