Re: VeriChip hack? (Sorry if this posts twice)

["Alex J Lennon" <ajlennon () embeddedsoftware co uk>]

A friend of mine and his cohorts injected one of those doggie RFID chips
into him last year (scary
big things aren't they?). At the time I rejoiced because I thought that even
the small amount of storage 
in there should probably be usable by the more forward thinking, RFID tag
scanning, Cambridge bartenders 
to make sure that my uploaded round of bieres wasn't forgotten en route.

Does this mean that some evil sort could change the round and have me
drinking Babycham?

Geez.

For your information, the "implantable microchips" will be in huge
production soon.  By next summer, US Govt is requiring all livestock of any
sort to have them and much more stuff that I find relevant and offensive.  I
farm on a small scale on the side and this is murder on small farm economics
but the privacy, etc., implications are, in my not so humble opinion, worse.
