When will you get 'chipped'?

[125gJoe]

"Many huge corporations, including Philip Morris, Procter and Gamble, and Wal-Mart, have begun experimenting with RFID spy chip technology. Gillette is leading the pack, and recently placed an order for up to 500 million RFID tags from a company called "Alien Technology" (we kid you not). These big companies envision a day when every single product on the face of the planet is tracked with RFID spy chips!"

Man I find that quite scary. Do those companies really need to go to such lengths? It makes me want to throw my Gillette razor in a fast moving body of water.

We actually had to have the Coca Cola company stop sending their product to DoD installations for a short while. They had cans with tracking devices that activated upon opening a can of pop (it was for a promotional cash program). The frequency was a hackable common-use part of the EM spectrum for easy location.

It was supposed to be: open the right can of pop, win some $$.

Instead: Open a can of pop in the wrong part of the world, get positively located by somebody w/ an RPG-7.

What a pain. Can't enjoy a Coke these days without getting killed.

v/r, N-A

Guess I wont be using gilette ever again. That whole camera thing is messed up. I am more worried about that then the tracking chips implanted inside of people, I don't think that will happen, but this is scary. If people could use things to figure out what your carrying and decide that you have something in your wallet, or bag or what ever that they want and mug you or something. Or worse, drive by your house and then decide that they want to rob your house because they know exactly what you have. There oughta be a law.
