RFID chips

So there's been some media saying how Americans Passports will include ID chips in new passports soon, and ultimately will be injecting people with the chips.
Im looking for more info on the specifics of this. Is it true that these chips will be mandatory for the common citizen within our lifetimes.

would the government really spend that much money to do that? I would figure they would rather spend the money fighting other countries. I guess its possible...but that sounds pretty freaky..."injecting chips" that sounds very evil.

Well, its illegal to put thing we want into out bodies. (drugs) Why not make it mandatory to put things we don't want in there.

it doesn't cost much for a RFID chip. i saw it on tv. it cost less then 2 cents to make. and the chip is so small they can stick it in a syringe and inject you with it.

hot debate about it being used on prisoners and school children
as part of ensuring that our food supply is safe they're trying to do it with livestock, of course they make the claim of health by citing anthrax and mad cow but other problems are sure to arise to put an even bigger scare into us. currently the program is voluntary but it's predicted to be mandatory by 2009 and so far theres lots of operations cooperating and many more that refuse.
people should be concerned, it may put the small farmers under, it's those little guys that are keeping prices more competitive. Why should you care since you're a vegan? it's simply another first step, another something that will get us all accustomed to these chips

It's really pretty convenient (passports only) and I'm all for it. They just need to lower the range at which they're readable and tighten up the security.

You can microwave them to neutralize the chip. However, your passport may be deemed invalid due to tampering.
My roommates seem to think that Canada is now a subsiduary of the US and eventually we will have to submit to RFID's (based on zeitgeist.) I disagree whole heartedly ... but the possible reality is very scary to me.
I would either live in the woods (working on that as a life goal anyways.) ... or kill myself protesting. Swear on my grave, i would not knowingly accept a chip. However, thats another scenerio - being unknowingly chipped while in hospital care, or other government care (jail?) - I can not possibly imagine my government condoning such measures..
There seems to be a large resistance already started.

Meh, who knows? Im no expert on people or politics but Id say things are going to get a whole lot worse before the majority stands up. Funny thing is the majority thinks these changes are for the better, fucking sad isnt it? I blame a equal mix of religion and ignorance/pride. Its gunna take a hell of a lot (think nuked city) before people will be down with implanting chips in there bodies too, people just wont do it or subject their kids to it. This is all my opinion of course, fuck I dont even live in the US as of a few months ago.

They won't implement this for at least a few decades...there would be too much dissent.
What is much more likely to happen is we start chipping our kids, when they are too young to notice/care. Then the kids grow up with the idea that having chips inside them is an OK thing. Nothing to worry about. Give it a generation or two from now...and they wont have to "make" anyone accept it, we already will have.
They are already doing this. There are a handful of people (200 last time I checked) that are already implanted. It begins small...

That is because it is an 'ok' thing. The chips will store SSN numbers, bank account information, medical information, etc. They are extremely useful. If someone is unconscious and can't relay their medical information all they have to do is scan the information from the chip. I don't see why this is necessarily going to be a technology abused by the government.

you're wrong and right, it starts with kids and prisoners first, it's happening everywhere under the guise of 'child safety', while it's not an implant yet it wont be that long before it is

I meant that they wouldn't make everyone do it for a few decades...they are already doing it to a handful of people (all "voluntary" of course) and I expect them to do it to all kids within a few years.

I like the way you say 'voluntary', the school my son goes to adheres to very strict bussing guidelines, when the bus arrives the kids that need that bus are loaded, a sheet is handed to the driver by the teacher denoting which children are on the bus, as the driver drops them off they're marked off the list, the driver turns the list in after his route
last year someone tried to pick up one of the students at school, he wasnt on a pickup list for the kid, and even though there's no cop assigned to the school for security the teachers held him until cops arrived, a case where people did their jobs.

Of course.
It's all in the "Patriot Act". Without a doubt it's completely unconstitutional, but, it's already being implemented. This has been in the works since the technologies inception.
Even the fuckin' Bible says in Revelation of a tag that will be in our hand or on our heads.

I found out just recently that the editing software company Avid that I use on a regular basis is a microchip producer. I found it very odd.
If you work in a federal office you may not receive access to the building or even a paycheck unless chipped. It a very scary thing.
No more cash, no more credit. Everything in life goes through your individual chip. Life could be made difficult and miserable without a chip.

There was an excellent article in this month's Scientific American;
 Quote:
More than 22 million visitors attended the Expo 2005 World's Fair in Aichi, Japan. Not one got in with a bogus ticket. The passes were practically impossible to forge because each harbored a tiny RFID (radio-frequency identification) chip - just 0.4 millimeter (mm) on a side and 0.06 mm thick - that transmitted a unique identification number via radio waves to a scanner at the gates.
Now Hitachi, the maker of that chip, is aiming even smaller. Last year it announced a working version of a chip only 0.05 mm on a side and 0.005 mm thick. Almost invisible, this prototype has one sixty-fourth the area yet incorporates the same functions as the one in the Expo tickets. Its minuteness, which will allow it to be embedded in ordinary sheets of paper, heralds an era in which almost anything can be discreetly tagged and read by a scanner that it need not touch.

What type of information is stored on the passport chip?

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Feel like you're being followed? Maybe it's a tracking tag on your jeans or one implanted in a credit card. The tags are called radio frequency identification or RFIDs, and every day they are becoming more and more a part of our lifestyle. These Orwellian microchips, as minute as a grain of sand, identify and track products and even lost children at theme parks. They're being implanted in humans to alert hospitals about medical conditions. The tags can be so tiny, you may never know they are there. Retailers claim RFIDs are essential: alerting them when they're low on lipstick, air filters, sodas and other inventory. Embedded tags aren't so obvious. Hitachi Europe recently developed the world's tiniest RFID integrated circuit, small enough to be placed in a piece of paper. Some RFID chips are made to be imbedded in livestock, in pets and most recently in humans for a variety of reasons. RFID prices have dropped, and tagging has become practical for businesses. In-Stat, a high-tech research firm, reports more than 1 billion RFID chips were made last year and predicts that by 2010 the number will increase to 33 billion. Slightly larger than a grain of rice, RFID chips from VeriChip of Florida are manufactured for implanting in humans. The Food and Drug Administration approved human implants two yea

RFID chips first came to my attention upon watching zeitgeist. They sure do tie in well with the "New World Order" conspiracy. If I should be getting one anytime soon, you bet it'll be hammered/microwaved/whatever breaks it.

You can bet chips will also be in all monetary systems as well. Cash - the last frontier of anonymity, gone!

Interesting, but, those sources seem minimally credible.
Not writing that off, just waiting for more stories/coverage/proof on that.

If we refuse the chip, the chip will fail. Simple as that. Start with the READ ID. Microwave it. Microwave your license card. Do not accept it!
One of the larges religions in the world (Christianity) is a viable excuse not to submit to the mark (chip).
Our right to arm ourselves has essentially been taken. We can't form any group that even looks like a military force.
We must build networks that can stay hidden, quickly organize when needed, and fade into the night after.
Viva la revolution!!

lol, if they want everyone chipped, and i plan on doing anything illegal or shady, i'll just go get a fake ID chip down at the DMV... just like you can do with ID cards now.

I can't honestly imagine a future without some kind of RFID, a chip thats .05x.005mm is intensly small and cheap, not only that the economic and efficiency benefits would far outweigh any kind of privacy advocation.

After I got my passport and made it overseas I had my friend run it over with her car repeatedly, I left it on the porch overnight, got too drunk and dropped it in a beer mug, fell in a lake with it in my pocket, and basically did all I could (intentionally and unintentionally) to make sure that little bugger wasn't tracking me anymore. It worked, at Frankfurt the woman scanned it twice, looked annoyed and then did it with the bar code.
