THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS IS TO IMPEACH OBAMA ! OR THE MARK OF THE BEAST HAS BEGUN. HR4872 sec2521
Update on Obama Care RFID mandatory March 23 2013 is from my
understanding NOT TRUE based on doing research if you have valid GOVT
website proof let me know.
This doesn't mean the technology isn't
here because it is being used on animals and medical patients now. The
question is: is this the technology that will be used for the mark of
the beast 666 mentioned in the bible that we are not to take if we want
to go to heaven?
RFID is already in use all around us. Humans
have a verichip implanted for medical purposes. Dogs and Cats have
verichips implanted as an ID tag to be located? Or used an EZPass
through a toll booth? Or paid for gas using ExxonMobils' SpeedPass? Then
you've used RFID.
There is no law requiring a label indicating
that an RFID chip is in a product. Once you buy your RFID-tagged jeans
at The Gap with RFID-tagged money, walk out of the store wearing
RFID-tagged shoes, and get into your car with its RFID-tagged tires, you
could be tracked anywhere you travel. Bar codes are usually scanned at
the store, but not after purchase. But RFID transponders are, in many
cases, forever part of the product, and designed to respond when they
receive a signal. Imagine everything you own is "numbered, identified,
catalogued, and tracked." Anonymity and privacy? Gone in a hailstorm of
invisible communication, betrayed by your very property.
But
let's not stop there. Others are talking about placing RFID tags into
all sensitive or important documents: "it will be practical to put them
not only in paper money, but in drivers' licenses, passports, stock
certificates, manuscripts, university diplomas, medical degrees and
licenses, birth certificates, and any other sort of document you can
think of where authenticity is paramount." In other words, those
documents you're required to have, that you can't live without, will be
forever tagged.
Consider the human body as well. Applied Digital
Solutions has designed an RFID tag - called the VeriChip - for people.
Only 11 mm long, it is designed to go under the skin, where it can be
read from four feet away. They sell it as a great way to keep track of
children, Alzheimer's patients in danger of wandering, and anyone else
with a medical disability, but it gives me the creeps. The possibilities
are scary. In May, delegates to the Chinese Communist Party Congress
were required to wear an RFID-equipped badge at all times so their
movements could be tracked and recorded. Is there any doubt that, in a
few years, those badges will be replaced by VeriChip-like devices?
Surveillance
is getting easier, cheaper, smaller, and ubiquitous. Sure, it's
possible to destroy an RFID tag. You can crush it, puncture it, or
microwave it (but be careful of fires!). You can't drown it, however,
and you can't demagnetize it. And washing RFID-tagged clothes won't
remove the chips, since they're specifically designed to withstand years
of wearing, washing, and drying. You could remove the chip from your
jeans, but you'd have to find it first.
That's why Congress
should require that consumers be notified about products with embedded
RFID tags. We should know when we're being tagged. We should also be
able to disable the chips in our own property. If it's the property of
the company we work for, that's a different matter. But if it's ours, we
should be able to control whether tracking is enabled.
Security
professionals need to realize that RFID tags are dumb devices. They
listen, and they respond. Currently, they don't care who sends the
signal. Anything your companies' transceiver can detect, the bad guy's
transceiver can detect. So don't be lulled into a false sense of
security.
With RFID about to arrive in full force, don't be
lulled at all. Major changes are coming, and not all of them will be
positive. The law of unintended consequences is about to encounter
surveillance devices smaller than the period at the end of this
sentence.
