RFID Passport Shield Failure Demo - Flexilis

The FLX[2006‐0605] video security brief demonstrates a real‐world
vulnerability associated with the failure of the shielding component in the current
proposed electronic passport design. When partially open, as could be the case when in a
pocket, purse, or briefcase, the currently proposed passport can be detected by a nearby
inquiring RFID reader. The security brief also demonstrates an improved shield design
that requires a passport to be significantly open before reading is possible.

This whole RFID system could be improved by being discontinued completely, I am not even religious, but this all rings a familiar warning about the mark of the beast. I believe it was written about the roman control and demise and we are only trying to repeat an obvious mistake that we've avoided for two thousand years. Soon you will have to wear a Luke Skywalker glove to magnetically shield your RFID implant in the back of your hand. I can't believe these young ppl are so into being tagged!

RFID isn't necessary to begin with on or in anything, we must protest against it and never giving up!! I have already punched holes through my cards and do not own a smart phone or smart anything in my home! They can't enslave us if we don't use their products!

:D maybe we can destroy the rfid tag so it can't be read? I'm sure the can read passports worldwide anyhow to get gps location of the passport

Bullshit these guys are only giving the terrorist hints by outlining the flaws found using this electronic passport. These guys are just like the dummies they used in the demonstration of the flaws.

EzPL8™ has an interro-Gator™ that reads my toll booth RFID tag and tracks what I buy at drive-thru restaurants. As far as privacy goes, who cares whether I like pickles or how many creams & sugars I take in my coffee? They greet me by name at the speaker with my usual already showing up on the screen. EzPL8.com™ linked my credit card so it's a Hands free - Wallet free™ payment. I just show up and they hand me food like my mother does. It's definitely Fast Food Faster - Smarter™. NWO--yeah!
