RFID chip implanted into man gets computer virus


Source: BBC Researchers have found that implanted identity chips can pick up computer viruses. Reading University’s Mark Gasson conducted an experiment to show how radio frequency identity (RFID) chips could become electronically infected.


He explained to Rory Cellan-Jones the risks involved with the new technology including its effects on medical implants such as pacemakers./snip

(The clip also states that it's possible these silly RFID things might be able to pick up a virus, not that one has without researcher spending a lot of time and effort to find a vector for one.)

LOL.  

BBC did this story. Not me.   So BBC would be "paranoid".    Ouch for them.

that is what chips are.   "transhuman" and hopefully you do not want to go there.

Your first link, on the other hand, takes this fairly innocuous and measured suggestion and then goes beserk in the manner of a 12 year old who's just drank a couple of bottles of pernod.

So are pacemakers.
And prosthetics, vaccinations, dental work, hip replacements, knee replacements, me taking insulin as injections rather than my pancreas manufacturing it for me, any form of vision correction at all, hearing aids, surgery, blood transfusions...

You'd be cool with doing away all of that and living like an Amish, would you? I didn't have you pegged as an extropian, but for Christ's sake, have you no bloody idea at all how widespread and pervasive this shit is?

That stuff is not a chip.

Chipping you voids your brain.   Get it?  You do not download programming into a human.  it is sick.

I think you've read too much William Gibson, mate.
The chip in question is an identity device that transmits and receives radio waves. There's no way in hell it can have any connection to the victim's nervous system.
Do you think it comes without any firmware in the first place, or something?

I'm not chipped. They haven't even got around to issuing id cards over here yet.
(And I don't need a NWO master: I'm one of the Queen's bitches subjects, remember?)

So precisely how is a virus supposed to spread from a chip into your cns? Should I be worried about the screen flicker queering my brain if I'm using a PC that's picked up a dose as well?

electrical impulses run both the chip and you CNS.

Oh, you're thinking more of John Christopher than William Gibson. My mistake.
