Serial killer read your passport/DL chip 30 ft away and you got the death penalty
 

The new RFID chip being put in driver licenses and passports can be read from 30 feet
away by anyone with the equipment. Then they become you as all their movements
are tracked as being you and you get the blame for their serial killings.

You forgot though since cmaeras are going ot bev erywhere it will be more than obvious it's not you. Also not to mention since the government will have a copy of your DNA that will also prove you were not there.

Yeah, that's why 50% of all murders in America remain unsolved;
because the cops always get it right.

Yeah, and you only have to wait in jail for two years to present that evidence at your trial.

And sure the cops will go get all the video from all those cameras when they don't
need it....NOT. But you will hire big time lawyer to get all that video, right?

and the video will still be around 2 years later?

tinfoil hats are in full effect

Link or you fuck goats.


considering the technology you are talking about won't actually be used until the FUTURE yeah I suspect that more murders will get solved and quicker by then anyways. Almost every state has it where cons have to submit DNA that goes into a database. Just a few weeks ago Florida passed a law where just being arrested on a felony charge forces you to submit DNA. Since most non family murders are done by career criminals and since those criminals will be in the DNA database and since everyone leaves SOME DNA behind when they commit a crime, yeah murders will be sovled pretty quickly in the future. The days of having Bundy's, Gacy's or Dahmers where they get away with killing dozens of people over years or even decades are quickly coming to a close.

i already know that, more important is do they track me what i do every day?

that's why i wear my tin foil undies at all times.

to foil that kind of ID theft as well as keep all those people with xray vision from staring at my junk,

find the chip and damage it

There was a very nice writeup in Wired about this a couple years ago. Readers are simple to make with off the shelf parts. Very easy to read the cards in your wallet or purse, then produce your own cards for free gas, etc. The author of the article even had a newly implanted chip in his shoulder for secure server room access, read with the homemade device as well.

Pantuck pierces my skin with the gun, delivering a microchip and antenna combo the size of a grain of long rice. For the rest of my life, a small region on my right arm will emit binary signals that can be converted into a 16-digit number. When Pantuck scans my arm with the VeriChip reader - it looks sort of like the wand clerks use to read barcodes in checkout lines - I hear a quiet beep, and its tiny red LED display shows my ID number.

Three weeks later, I meet the smartcard-intercepting Westhues at a greasy spoon a few blocks from the MIT campus. He's sitting in the corner with a half-finished plate of onion rings, his long blond hair hanging in his face as he hunches over the cloner attached to his computer.

Because the VeriChip uses a frequency close to that of many smartcards, Westhues is pretty sure the cloner will work on my tag. Westhues waves his antenna over my arm and gets some weird readings. Then he presses it lightly against my skin, the way a digital-age pickpocket could in an elevator full of people. He stares at the green waveforms that appear on his computer screen. "Yes, that looks like we got a good reading," he says.

World is coming to a end!!!

It explodes if you try to do that. Don't you know anything?

Seems like there's going to be a market for lead lined wallets soon. :thumbsup

Question: why doesn't RFID use a challenge protocol (say using a one time code specific to that card) so that only authorised readers will get a reply to their query?

Ok, reading the article it seems there are more secure chips available, but they cost $$$$$

Excuse me, but nobody asked you to post your real name in this thread. :1orglaugh

That sucks....
