ck76, participation in the rfid badge program is voluntary… you can get a badge sans chip on request. The point (I think) was to explore something that shortly will be ubiquitous. How easy is the system to hack? Can it be used for fun or useful purposes? Hammer wielders and badge microwavers are missing the point.

“…can now network and interact…” implies that this is something new. Far from it! First developed at the MIT Media Lab at least 5 years ago, the concept has been spun off into a company called nTAG, and there are various experimental implementations out there.

I’m not going, but I would treat this the same as all the other rfid tags I run into…put it in a microwave or smash it with a hammer.

Really guys? Rfid at a hacker con? The feds must be drooling uncontrollably.
