You�re video does not open, but I believe I�ve seen the one you are talking about.
Being able to remotely read the chip I think is a minor problem.

The banks and the powers-that-be would love to see RFID chips in wide usage. As a cashless society could then evolve. Think of the convenience of walking into a store grabbing what you want and simple waving your chipped hand over a sensor, the one with the cancerous tumor growing around the chip, and have your account instantly debited. Who would be apposed to having a convenience such as this?

Also this would provide total tracking control over all commerce. If everything, goods and services, required a chip then they could be continually tracked and adjustments made in the delivery system on the fly if needed. Much greater efficiency could be achieved and with all transactions monitored the correct taxes would always be collected. In addition sales of inappropriate material to unapproved individuals could be banned. If someone were to continue to try and buy material that was determined to be inappropriate for them they could easily be tracked for police action. Or simply have there chip turned off and be locked out of participating in this all loving caring society.

Welcome to a brave new world.

I recently read an article that talked about hospitals considering the idea of implanting chips into new born babies while still in the hospital. We need to watch and see how that develops

I listened to this youtube video about walmart putting the rfid chips in their clothes... A friend of mine that works there says they have had those for five years.

So if anyone complains about these chips they smugly say OH we have been doing that for years. We but those chips on all our property so what's wrong with injecting them into new born babies?
