And so it begins My teenage son came home from school last week telling me about how awesome the new medichip will be, no more money, being able to track criminals, being able to find abducted children, having all your information in one spot, and just overall convienance it will bring to modern society. Wow!! I couldn't believe it!

Beyond the simple fact that none of these chips will ever be 100% secure or unhackable? Would you really trust all your personal information, details and finances to a piece of technology that could be stolen anywhere, anytime all without your knowledge?

Aren't these chips like only detectable for a few feet?

Cancer, all their studies show it causes that.

All US passports have RFID chips and all cellphones, and all new computers,and all new cars, and all,ETC,ETC,ETC.
if you don't think they are everywhere, you are sadly mistaken.

Let's say we accept there is mind control, via ELF magnetic manipulation and Silent Sound Spectrum, etc. Let's say we accept this vibrational tech affects your biology, and therefore, among other things, health.....well being. We know already, if we accept the existence of it, the affect on your mind, mental proccesses and functions, right? Go with me here, please.

I don't care what external devices these chips are in, but they will never put one in my body.

A few cm.
Unless you're really going all out to read it, using custom exciters and DSP correlation, in which case you can get nearly 20 inches.

You've got the little box in your pocket. It's a cell phone. You use it voluntarily, heck, you even keep it maintained and updated for them, and pay for the privilege.

A bit more than that. Passing through a doorway or "choke point" is sufficient. This could be several meters. Like a grocery store, bank or ballgame. Current technology...

Limitations that exist with regard to the use of such low frequencies include the necessity to use larger antennas, low data rate and bandwidth and a rather dramatic decay in the strength of the electromagnetic field (1/r6), where r represents the distance between a low frequency interrogator and a passive RFID tag.
...
Because of their dependence on external reader energy fields and their low reflected power output, passive RFID tags have a much shorter read range (from a few inches for tags using load modulation up to a few meters for those using backscatter modulation) as well as lower read reliability when compared to active RFID tags.
large stationary models capable of reading many tags simultaneously as they pass (shown in the center of Figure 6-2).
