VeriChip: RFID Microchip Implants for Humans. Wal-Mart Calls for Collaboration along with the Department of Defense
Senior executives speaking at the Retail Systems event in Chicago this week said they want to work collaboratively with suppliers and other retailers to generate industry-wide RFID benefits.

FROM RFID'S TO NATIONAL I.D. CARD IMPLANTS
So how do RFIDs work?
Patented in 1973, Radio Frequency Identification tags (RFIDs) are very small (11 mm) microchips, which act as transponders (a combination of transmitter and responder), which are always listening for a radio signal sent by the transceivers, or RFID readers. When a transponder receives a radio query, it transmits its unique ID code back to the transceiver. RFID tags are already in use in the United States, including ID chips for cats and dogs, EZPass for highway tollbooths, and gas cards like ExxonMobil's SpeedPass. Also, there is a Dallas-based automotive-component remanufacturer has been testing a passive-tag RFID system to identify rebuilt items and prevent packaging and shipping errors. Bar code labels cost pennies, down to a fraction of a cent. Currently, RFID smart labels typically cost $0.50 to $1.00 (US). The return on investment (ROI) of an RFID system can be significant for certain applications, but bar coding is frequently the most efficient solution. Identify the Performance Characteristics That You Need What read range and at what speed do you need to read the tags? Do you need the ability to read multiple tags at the same time? What volume of data do you want to track? Do you need to read information not in the line of sight? Is a read-only license plate good enough or do you want read/write capabilities? To what item(s) do you want to attach the smart label? Determine If You Need a Dual System Zebra Technologies currently offers three printer/encoders, the EPC-compatible R4MPlus™, the large tabletop R-140™ or the compact R402™. All print human readable text, graphics, and bar codes and also encode and verify smart labels. These printers give you the ability to do either—or both—depending upon the media you use and the instructions that you give the unit.

Inserted with a quick shot. You wouldn't feel it going in or know if it was under your skin

Companies that are already using RFID's, May 21, 2004—The following are news announcements made during the week of May 17. Wallmart and DOD (Department of Defense) have been using RFID's for many years NEC Moves Into the RFID Market Hispanics have been RFID for many years They even get paid by our government to be tracked. Anyone designated as a so-called "terrorist" can be tracked wherever they go with an implanted microchip. In fact, eventually an entire micro-chipped population can be more easily tracked, managed and controlled by any government to make sure it’s compliant to the State's will. In its report, CNN blithely (and falsely) states that "while the idea of using the chip to track people has raised privacy concerns in the United States, the idea has been popular with Mexicans." This implies that Mexicans don't care about privacy, and will even stand in line just to get their microchip implants, as long as they will be allowed to move to the United States. The CNN story also falsely implies that Mexicans will pay the $150 cost for the microchip injection plus the $50 annual fee for the "privilege" of being tracked like cattle. That's probably on every Mexican's top priority list -- right after getting his or her daily burrito. The IT Government market for Applied Digital Solutions, however, appears to be wide open, since the scanning device and related software cost $1,200. The downside to the technology? Currently VeriChip can confirm a kidnap victim's identity -- only after the body is found. NEC Moves Into the RFID Market NEC is jumping into the RFID market. The Japanese computer giant has teamed up with Tagsys to deploy RFID systems in Southeast Asia. Tagsys will supply 13.56 MHz tags, readers and antennas. NEC will act as the integrator on projects and develop complete RFID systems. NEC has also announced that it has joined EPCglobal, making it the first Japanese IT vendor to join the international organization that is commercializing Electronic Product Code technologies. NEC will participate in EPCglobal working groups that are developing EPC standards, and the company plans to develop RFID-based solutions for retailer market in Japan and the U.S. LXE Unveils Handheld EPC Reader LXE, a Norcross, Ga.-based manufacturer of wireless computers and bar code scanners, has introduced a handheld computer that can read Class 1 and Class 0 Electronic Product Code RFID tags, the MX3-RFID. The Windows CE-based computer can read bar codes and RFID tags and transmit data wirelessly through an 802.11b network. The RFID antenna is protected in a low-profile enclosure at the rear of the unit. The MX3-RFID lists for about $7,000, depending on the features required. It is available in small quantities today and will be available in commercial quantities in the fourth quarter. EasyEPC to Hold Intensive Course EasyEPC, a for-profit training company set up by members of the Auto-ID Lab at Cambridge University, in England, will hold an intensive, three-day technical training course in Cambridge, from June 16 to June 18. The course covers all of the elements of the Electronic Product Code and EPC Network, including the Object Naming Service, Savant, Physical Markup Language and EPC Information Service. EasyEPC, members of the Auto-ID Lab at Cambridge and RFID Journal will also hold two-day, RFID Journal University courses in the United States in June and July and in Europe in the fall. NJM/CLI Offers RFID Label Applicator NJM/CLI, a Lebanon, N.H.-based manufacturer of print-and-apply labeling systems, has converted its Model 400 Print and Apply Labeler to handle RFID tags. The unit currently uses an RFID reader with an antenna external to the label printer to write data to a blank label with an embedded RFID transponder. The label is then printed and a second RFID antenna reads the data off the transponder to confirm that the data was written successfully and matches the printed label. The same RFID system has been added to a version of the applicator that handles preprinted labels. Bill Delmolino, VP of technical sales at NJM/CLI, says the company is waiting for companies such as Avery Dennison, Sato and Zebra to make their printers with built-in RFID readers available. These will be installed on the Model 400, which will enable NJM/CLI to eliminate the external RFID antennas. The RFID-enabled Model 400 costs $26,000. Owners of older models can purchase an RFID upgrade kit for $11,500. And those who purchase the current version with an external antenna can upgrade to a built-in antenna for $6,500.

YOUR FUTURE I.D. IS UNDER YOUR SKIN
According to the press release, "VeriChip is a secure, subdermal, radio frequency identification (RFID) microchip about the size of a grain of rice that can be used in a variety of security, financial, emergency identification and other applications."

This matter-of-fact description of the device is sure to alarm Christians, since it may be identified as the proverbial Mark of the Beast from Revelations, without which “no man might buy or sell save he that had the Mark.”

"In October 2002, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ruled that VeriChip is not a regulated device with regard to its security, financial, personal identification/safety applications,” the press release contionues, “but that VeriChip's healthcare information applications are subject to regulation by the FDA in the United States."

They have been putting them in our pets for years

Let's see if the FDA ruling can be deciphered. It's OK if the VeriChip tracks your credit report history, but not OK if it's used to inform doctors you're diabetic? This will undoubtedly be used as an argument to justify the VeriChip as a so-called "medical device" in the future.

The live "chipping" event in Mexico was billed as a "simple, outpatient procedure that requires only a few minutes for a local anesthetic and insertion of the chip with a specially designed needle."

This could actually be the start of a brand new low-cost underground industry. First there were back alley abortions. Then punk garage bands. Can basement microchip insertions be far behind?

HAPPY CHIPPED MEXICANS LOVE THEIR NEW SLAVERY

Even testimonials by satisfied customers were used to promote the “chipping” event by Applied Digital Solutions in Mexico.

For example, according to the VeriChip press release, Manuel Rosillo says, "I used to lead a normal, active life, but I never imagined I'd have a health problem as serious as this at my age. So far, I've suffered two heart attacks. I've undergone heart surgery and I'm under permanent treatment and medical supervision, which makes VeriChip an extremely useful product for me."

In other words, doctors at the hospital could monitor Senor Rosillo, while he was having another heart attack -- and dying at a remote location.

Another VeriChip testimonial comes from Francisco Pujano who says, "I was extremely interested in having a VeriChip implant after suffering a cerebral aneurysm. When I have an attack, I don't remember where I am or understand what's happening around me, and it can sometimes last for a long time, so for safety reasons, I opted for VeriChip."

Imagine how this could have helped George Bush -- while he was choking on that Enron Pretzel a while back.

Global Interactive Instructions for RFID

FROM RFID'S TO NATIONAL I.D. CARD IMPLANTS

So how do RFIDs work?

Patented in 1973, Radio Frequency Identification tags (RFIDs) are very small (11 mm) microchips, which act as transponders (a combination of transmitter and responder), which are always listening for a radio signal sent by the transceivers, or RFID readers. When a transponder receives a radio query, it transmits its unique ID code back to the transceiver. RFID tags are already in use in the United States, including ID chips for cats and dogs, EZPass for highway tollbooths, and gas cards like ExxonMobil's SpeedPass. Government officials have discussed putting RFID tags on all vital documents -- paper money, passports, drivers' licenses, passports, stock certificates, university diplomas, medical degrees/ licenses, birth certificates, and so on. In other words, these are the documents necessary for daily life in a "civilized" society.

With implantable microchips containing this information, external microchips (RFIDs) will be a moot point.

A National ID Card-Chip is the logical extension of this technology.

Currently the VeriChip, an RFID microchip tag, has been sold as a way to keep track of errant pets, wandering children and mindless Alzheimers patients.

Future potential uses are, however, much more sinister. For example, delegates to the Chinese Communist Party Congress were required to wear RFID-chipped badges, so their movements could be tracked and recorded. The Chinese correctly assumed that this procedure will cut down on defections to the West.

The next step is also obvious. Who needs a badge when you require your delegates -- or your employees -- or your citizens -- to have a microchip ID implanted in their arms?

Applied Digital Solutions Chairman/ CEO Scott R. Silverman must be salivating at the Global Slave Labor Market with its billions and billions of potential microchip implantees.

NEW IMPROVED IMPERIAL I.D.

It's not difficult to imagine a future which degenerates into a nightmare world where all transactions are tracked and stored on a global basis. The microchip implant makes 24/7 ubiquitous surveillance of any individual a sobering reality.

Today you can crush, puncture or microwave the RFID tag in the jeans you bought at Walmart -- but you can't demagnetize it.

If your ID is under your skin, the only way to get rid of it is to dig it out with an Exacto blade -- a science fiction scenario which is about to become very real.

Of course, this will also bring about a black market of phoney chips and reprogrammed IDs.

While the Roman Empire had tesserae (ID tags) for its slaves, the New American Empire will require more sophisticated devices to keep track of their "citizens."

Since Global High Tech Feudalism is the political-economic model of the future, implantable ID chips will be inevitably marketed to young people as being "cool" -- like the fad for body piercing and tattoos.

VeriChip's own cutesy advertising tagline is "Get Chipped," as in "Hey Mom, can I get chipped?"

The Human MicroChip Implant Scam is here and now. It is the latest affront to human liberty and dignity, disguised as a "simple" means for more "security" and more "comfort."

Rest assured, however, that a new generation of hackers are already working on ways to subvert this technology.

As William Gibson, author of "Neuromancer" wrote, "The street has its own uses..."

 

The WA times

Comments Now we have  RFID

I realize I'm late jumping in on the topic but have any of you heard of "Veri-chip" or the "Digital Angel" technologies. They were designed by Applied Digital Sciences.

 The veri-chip is the size of about the tip of a ball-point pen and is a syringe-injectible radio frequency device and carries a unique ID# and tons of other personal data...Digital-Angel is software designed to be used in conjunction with the chip and once the chip has been injected can track in real-time through global positioning sattelites...and its been designed and tested already...in fact they had a private showing with government officials and people from big-business in attendence, with limited press, in which they tracked an ADS engineer thru the streets of manhattan(understand, to the exact street-rubicon) via GPS and sent real-time through the internet to the conference...and that was sometime in 2000!  and the company CEO, Richard Sullivan, mentioned something about how people could use them instead of ATM or credit cards and of course, I am sure, there are limitless other "beneficial" uses...
TAKE CARE

Truly scary, especially in light of the fact that they probably don't have to implant it into our bodies, at least not right away. Eyeglasses, shoes, clothing, artificial joints, etc, could all help track us. They probably have the technology to remotely program the chips we inadvertently buy or to associate our purchases with us.

Of course, once we get used to them in our consumables, makes it easier to talk us into having them implanted. Some people already have "chipped" their pets!

Nations ponder traveler tracking


By Fred Reed

The approaching introduction of electronic passports containing biometric information needs more attention than it is getting. The United States wants them to monitor for terrorists. Other countries, such as England, plan to issue microchipped passports.
    Such passports have merit, and dangers. As Privacy International has said, "We are increasingly concerned that the biometric travel document initiative is part and parcel of a larger surveillance infrastructure monitoring the movements of individuals globally."
