Network In testimony, photos and video of those who have made the silicon implant to dispense with keys and passwords

MILAN - Password and metal keys are almost museum pieces for Amal Graafstra, twenty nine year old entrepreneur in Vancouver. You can access your computer or open the door, only it's just a gesture. Everything on the chip implanted under the skin that has been done: smaller than a grain of rice, lasts a lifetime. In his blog, the young Canadian says word for word to his experience with photos and video of the 'operation'. It is satisfied to have convinced his girlfriend, well she is now able to open the door with only the laying on of hands. An intervention that has nothing groundbreaking, in fact. It seems rather to become a new fad, the new border after the piercing.

THE PEOPLE OF CHIP Sottopelle - Just look at the forum http://tagged.kaos.gen.nz to realize this. Dozens of excited about the new system of radio frequency identification RFID. "It seems to have some sort of magical power," says Mikey Sklar, a twenty-eight in Brooklyn. "Abracadabra, and the door opens, the computer turns on." It 'been a surgeon Los Angels a impiantargli il chip. Lukas invece rivela che ha fatto tutto da solo nel giugno scorso. C'è chi esibisce link a video (clicca per guardare) e foto (clicca per vedere). E chi lancia un annuncio: «Cerco persone in Florida con chip sottopelle. Mi piacerebbe sentire le loro storie, voglio scrivere un racconto sulle potenzialità di questa tecnologia». Firmato Steveg. Un altro incita i partecipanti a fargli gli auguri: «Ho trovato un chirurgo disponibile. Giovedì mi faccio fare l'impianto, auguratemi in bocca al lupo».

DUE DOLLARI PER IL CHIP - Sul forum si trovano anche le indicazioni per il kit: bastano due dollari per portarsi a casa il chip, mentre ne occorrono almeno 50 per il lettore, be built into the device you want to interact with the PC ports.

HOW - All works like this: a small electronic circuit in the RFID chip (and usually in a small plastic bag called tags) is "listening" to a radio signal transmitted by a reader. When the circuit "feels" the signal it sends back to turn a chip containing the identification number or other information. At this point, having received the answer, the player gives the order to open doors, or other PC.

RESERVES - There are more prudent action on the forum: "So far the system has been tested only on animals that live più di 15 anni: non possiamo quindi ancora sapere che effetti possa avere sul lungo periodo. Il silicio è tossico!» grida allarmato un forumista. Poi c'è chi ricorda il rischio della privacy violata («i dati del potrebbero essere decodificati da altri lettori»). Ed ecco la trovata: «Tranquilli, sto realizzando un giubbotto che, a comando, scherma le onde radio».
