Terrorist Chickens and Proletarian Pigs

A friend of mine points out that in 2002 the National Animal Identification System (NAIS) was cooked up by Agra Business and handed to the US Government to do its bidding.

The government wants an RFID chip in your pet goat, your pet chicken, and any other farm animal.

My friend points out that this is nuts. But it is the logical result of the empire wanting to be God. If the empire wants to be God, they want to know everything.

They want to know where you are, what you are doing with your time, where your children are, and where your animals are.

My friend adds, this is arrogance. Arrogance that takes no account of what the actual physical realities are indicates that these people are on their way out.

How the US Government Makes YOU Less Secure

The US Government decided to create secure passports and insisted that a good number of other countries do the same thing, using the same technology.

These new passports use RFID technology. The RFID chips store lots of personal information, including a digitized photograph and, in the future, a fingerprint.

When passed in front of a reader, the chip is activated and transmits a radio signal.

Unfortunately these RFID-enhanced e-passports can be easily hacked, attacked, and cloned. There have been several high profile demonstrations of this ability.

The US Government has made Americans and their personal information LESS secure.
