Wait... what?  Are you claiming they can transmit away from the scanner?  :confused:

Unless they are powered by a battery, they are passive and cannot transmit on their own without an external field to power them up.

the scanner can transmit as well as receive, the signal can be relayed around the world...  the chip only has to sit there

Yes, a dataset of nameless numbers with no link to the person those numbers represent





you buy a tracking device, use a credit card because you had to buy online,
they mail it to you, they had to have your name and address, you have to
activate it, again, probably online where you'll enter your name again and
probably other info like an email... yeah... completely nameless



i was just talking to my friends about this, and im glad i went before all this bullshit started.
how effective do you think it would be if everyone( i mean everyone) removed and destroyed their bracelets upon entry? i wouldnt recommend saving them and taking them back to your house.but i guess it wouldnt matter because they will be mailed to you beforehand.

what do you mean gate privileges, like going into centeroo or entering and exiting the festival?

Why would they care what everyone of the people was doing? And why invest in processing all the data? To get what? I still don't think there's anything sinister behind this(I'm a savage optimist) also, blocking the chip should be fairly easy, that way you can get fucked up without the government knowing behind which tree you took a piss and how long you vomited behind the main stage and still be able to get in out...Win/Win (Bi-Winning if you want :hehehe:)

why even issue RFID tags if they arent wanting to process the data, they have
the tags, scanners and the software to use the tags, why invest that if they
arent interested in tracking

really, how's that gonna work? suit of armor?

Presumably, because its easier and cheaper than using bar codes.

Well sure they're gonna process the data, but to see what people are doing and how they can optimize the layout and stuff like that (don't know much about Bonaroo, I'm referring to administrational problems) And it's a lot easier to get in with a chip instead of having a guy check your whristband to see if maybe that 3 in the code isn't a bit to slanted for an original band, so no more lines in theory.

Suit of armor would be aweseome, but I'm sure there are better radio-opaque materials to wrap the band in (concrete comes to mind :naughty:)

I just thought about something interesting, how do they prevent people from cutting them off and giving them to friends? Do they stop working if you cut them? Or is there actually a guy looking at each and every one?

or it could be that the organizers are working with police to bust as many
wooks as they can and there will be scanners on the roads entering and
leaving bonnaroo as well as in the festival

with those RFID wrist bands I know I wont be attending bonnaroo this year, I
also didnt attend last year or any of the years prior so it's not like I'm
missing much more than a lack of sleep, loads of heat an mud and some nasty wooks


and for everyone that will be in attendance

Wow Super Scary, thanks for posting this OP!

And I was thinking of this;

Quote:

We all know they have checkpoints, etc. for cars coming in (every year Shroomerites have road stories coming to or leaving from Bonnaroo...now if the roadblock cops have the RFID scanners, they'll know which cars are associated with the festival. For hippie vans and buses this is no big deal, obviously they are going, but for people trying to be DL and discrete in normal cars, normal hair/clothes...

Just weird technology to be associating with a music festival...

And Damn I was so excited for the Eminem headliner!

Hilarious. A bunch of druggies discussing illegal activities on a publicly accessible web site going haywire over some RFIDs that are there to prevent ticket fraud. :tinfoil:

This place keeps cracking me up, every day.

So fucking what? If you can log it, you can relay the signal. And then what? Worried about HAM radio nerds logging your bonnaroo RFID tag? Oh noes!!111!! :scream:

The RFID's that I've used need to be in VERY close proximity to be read, like, touching the reader.  You couldn't really scan a car that's driving by.

false. you can get credit card numbers through clothing purses and wallets just by being on the same street as an rfid credit card.
