Chips, Surveillance & Privacy

During the second hour, private investigator Roger Tolces spoke about the latest news in surveillance. Relating to the fact that all computers are assembled in China nowadays, he presented his theory of the "Manchurian microchip." According to one of his sources, these machines are secretly equipped with a hidden microchip that can be activated at any time by China's military-intelligence service, for information gathering purposes.

He also talked about keystroke logging and spyware, and how the US government can install this on computers without entering your premises. There's a lot of government paranoia right now, fueled by things like the Patriot Act, he explained.

Appearing in the latter half of the show, privacy expert Katherine Albrecht warned of GE's development of a technology called "Smart Grid." The plan calls for people to install "smart" meters and thermostats in their homes, which would allow outside parties to monitor their household activities remotely. Sometimes appliances could be turned off during peak usage hours, which could pose problems. And such detailed monitoring would encroach on people's privacy, she noted.

Albrecht also expressed concerns over the increased usage of RFID tags to track drivers in their cars. Such tags may also be added to "enhanced" driver's licenses, and this would turn the cards into remotely readable tracking devices-- making people trackable all the time. She offers a newsletter about RFID privacy issues at spychips.com

I stayed up late to hear this last night. Really something the pet chps were something that really "sounds good" without thinking it through.. Were are you? IF you are like most your with your pet ... Easy to figure that one out.

The other point was the idea that "oh that would be good for those guys"
Then fill in the blank as who you see as someone you would think should be chipped. The sex offender, or the Ex-con..
Then there was the issue of Home Land Security and the D.L. of each state having all your information on the bar code. So far 17 states have said NO to that idea. The owner of the bar story was a good example of why we do not need that information a float.

Thank you for posting this.

My pleasure carrie-people need to be aware of how stealthily this is happening also.
