AD Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 ooooooo rfid chips sooooooo scary. i'm scared by the hologram in my $20 bill too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 But of course the data of that hologram can't be hacked into, with all the potential consequences that might entail. Make a new technology, and somebody will abuse it.I'd love to know, as a sidenote, how many of the evangelicals who have traditionally gone apeshit-paranoid over biometrics and all (I know, this isn't quite biometrics) will endorse this in the "war against terrorism".I don't know why, but I keep thinking of A Handmaid's Tale a lot lately.

Kanada Kev Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 For more on RFIDs and how they are being placed in US currency (to track where the money goes) and other Orwellian changes to the US, you GOTTA see this doc:http://www.freedomtofascism.com/It'll scare the shit outta ya when you realize how much power the banks have and how they obtained that power.I'd be happy to burn this onto a CD (AVI DivX codec) for anyone to watch if they wish.Later . . .

Kanada Kev Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 AD,PM me your snail mail and I'll send it out to you.In case your AVI viewer on your computer has probs with the file, you just need to load this codec:http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/If your DVD player you have hooked up to your TV can play DIVX movies, you can watch it on there too.Later . . .Kanada Kev =8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
