Gadgets & Tech – Humorous look at RFID chip implants in humans, and who should be getting them.
This device is a coil that is pulsed with a magnetic field. When the field collapses, the RFID turns into a ring oscillator giving off a certain frequency. A frequency counter is used and your identity is that frequency. Sounds difficult but in-fact it works very similar to your cell phone. This technology can be duplicated then what. A new black market!!
Remote control means exactly that.You are not in control some remote individual is. You cannot control the frequency at which someone may decide to send electromagnetic waves into the chip.
In a perfect world the frequency would always be just enough for tracking in our current world...ie cellphones.
Reminds me of the intro to the Outer Limts: ...we will control the horizontal, we will control the vertical, we will control all that you see and hear etc.
Picture this, microchip all detainees...wake them up every few hours with frequencies in the range beyond the threshold of human pain...
Now picture yourself, in your own country, minding your own business, it is decided that in addition to viewing your financial data, tapping your phone, chipping your passport, your gov't wants to chip you. There are already chips being experimented with that are implanted into people in the attempt to download the electrical impulses of their brainwaves and interpreted...as well as upload data.
Incidentally, this form of abuse is used on Wesley Snipes who plays a prisoner in a cyberjail in Judge Dredd. So it's really not science fiction it's science of the future. That's where the ideas come from scientific experiments happening in the real world that are not widely known...so it seems fantastic.
Ten years later, or less, it's a part of your life.
Other examples: Star Trek: needleless injection via electroporation through the skin...already exists.
Invastion of the Body Snatchers - cloning...already exists
Gattaca: DNA profiling, absence of middle class...already happening
Lawnmower Man: virtual reality..already exists
1984: obvious
i think its a damn shame that people think they need to tag their kids to protect them...a shame because there ARE so many predatory sickos out there and it really seems kids arent safe ANYWHERE. what the hell is wrong with this world??? when did everyone turn into raving sicko lunatics? wish we could just go back to the days of not having to worry about so much...

I disagree with the one about chipping kids, especially after reading about the girl who was kidnapped this weekend and sent an SMS message leading to her rescue.
