Injecting RFID Tags Into People
Filed in archive Tags and Readers on December 29, 2005
Remember Mikey Sklar and the Faraday cage pants? Back in October 2005 I wrote about him and his experimental project in "Building a Faraday Cage in Clothing to Shield RFID Tags."
Well, Mikey's at it again. This time he had a surgeon friend implant an RFID tag in his hand.
Now before you go "Eeeeewww" just keep in mind that implanting an RFID tag is probably no more invasive than some other things I can think of, like lip studs and full-sleeve tattoos and navel rings. In fact, Mikey told me in an email that he did not feel the tag when it was being implanted nor afterwards.
If you go over to his website, Electric Clothing, Mikey has a little video of the whole implantation procedure. He is giving a talk at the DorkBot meeting next week on the subject. He even was kind enough to email me a link to his slides that describe supplies you would need in order to implant RFID tags (warning: 9MB PDF file), including a comparison of tags and readers by different manufacturers. Just in case you were wondering....

I would not want to be injected with RFID tag... Still, putting RFID tags inside a person's body is inappropriate.

I wouldn't let myself injected not for a million dollars. God knows what the side effects might be

Sounds like the mark of the beast to me!! Can you say scary, scary stuff? They make it seem innocent and who wouln't want to protect their loved ones? Makes sense right? No Don't do it!
