Without wanting to take this topic further OT.  The point is the info on the chips is not encrypted.
As far as I'm aware (and according to several passport related articles/programmes I've seen), a passport with a fault chip is still a valid passport.
To prevent my all my biometric information being leaked, especially to the USA (where it is not subject to the superior EU privacy laws, and doesnt even get protection under USA privacy laws).

why would it matter?  With that wig on nobody would recognize you in your passport picture anyways :P

don't joke with my personal information :P

I shall look forward to attending a future SMF convention. (once I've been cleared by the FBI/CIA/Homeland Security after 5 years in Guantanamo and the torture marks to prove it). J/K :P

I must remember when I get my passport, to smash the chip in the passport with a blunt object to break it.

Doesn't work, RFID chips can be very thin. It is much easier to microwave them for 10 seconds or so. They usually kills the chips (although you should check if they are really dead to be sure).

Its going to be so much fun getting the whole team in one time zone. (No more staying up to 4am to chat with some of my fellow SMF'ers. )


karlbenson

One timezone maybe.

But some say its impossible to get all the SMF'ers on the same planet :P

Yep, all of us together at the same place, same time. :P

I plan to make some proposals during the meet.


  • Add dishwasher control panel feature
  • Propose that we change the price of SMF. Let's make it -$0.05 (negative) instead of $0.00. ;)
  • Some early planning to take over the world

mmmm....

We'll basically become Zombies.

FLANDERS: Hey Simpson, I'm feeling kinda peckish, mind if I chew your ear?

<SHOTGUN>

BART: Dad, you killed the Zombie Flanders!
HOMER: He was a zombie?

:P
