Passive RFID Chip Usage is Prevalent in Society.

---

RFID technology is common in America today and the use of this technology is becoming more and more common in the United States.

RFID chips are Radio Frequency Identification chips, and are implanted in animals, and less often humans, as well as being used in manufactured goods.

The use of these chips are widespread, but when there is important information being stored on the chip, the use of them is unsafe.

The chips are easily scanned, and can be scanned remotely by any person who is in possession of a scanning device.

Any RFID chip is a passive RFID chip, because they do not have an independent source of power.

The power for an RFID chip comes from the scanner when the chip is scanned, the chip receives the signal and simply sends it back out with the unlocked information from the chip.

The chips do not use encrypted code for storing the information which they contain, there needs to be nothing other than a scanner to access the information and decipher it.

The potential for misuse and criminal activity which can be associated with these chips is too much to allow their use to continue.

The Chip

The passive RFID chip is implanted below the skin in animals and humans, and can by placed into manufactured goods.

The chip is most commonly associated with its use in pet identification.

The chip will store the information of who owns the animal and their contact information, so that lost pets can be returned to their owners.

The passive RFID chip has much more disturbing usages however, in that it has been approved for use in humans.

It was approved for human use five years ago by the FDA. The people of the United States of America can be tagged as though they were someone’s pet or a piece of livestock.

Some states have banned the forced implantation of the device, but only a few have been so proactive.

VeriChip, the country that makes the device, has spoken out for the usage of the chip in tracking immigrants and ensuring the legality of workers.

The are a proponent of forcing the implantation at the border of the United States of America.

Big Brother

The last president of the United States of America was a proponent for the use of the passive RFID chip as a passport for Americans.

Keep in mind when thinking of this that this is the man who pushed for the quick passage of the unconstitutional patriot act, and his administration is the one which gave vast power to law enforcement allowing them to monitor everyone.

The government of the United States of America would not hesitate to use the RFID chips to track the movements of the people of our country.

They would not hesitate to install scanning machines at various locations in the country which would automatically scan and log the movements of Americans.
