Then please STFU about the RFID in a license. The phone is far easier to track, has already been used countless times by the police to track people, and the phone account is actually linked to lots of your personal information. I can pretty much guarantee you had to give out your SSN when you signed that phone contract because they run a credit check, which the probably keep on file as well.

Do you have a Tops or Wegmans card? What about an EZPass?

Some intresting info about RFID chips in here.

[http://www.spychips.com/](http://www.spychips.com/)

Just remember, it all starts somewhere. At first they wanted the national ID cards with the chips in them. It basically got rejected. So now they just changed it to passports and enhanced drivers liscenses. Im sure over time it will be mandatory to have a enhanced drivers liscense and we will all have rfid chips on us at nearly all times anyways.
