This guy actually did it. He implanted a microchip (RFID) into his own hand to....start his car. Unbelievable, you have to see it.

OK, I know someone says this every day, but that was the best episode yet.  That was flippin' fascinating!  I'm sending it out to a dozen people right now.  My team is doing a lot of word with RFID right now, but we never thought of that.  Golly!

So It's only readable from few inches?  Well, my reader enabled hand will read your key and steal it.  The only thing that will stop me is shielded gloves (c)

Hey, that was a really good idea - and you came up with it pretty quick.  I'm impressed.

WORD! People having be doing this for some time. The data is relatively easy to hack. You just have to have a receiver and be within range to read the activated RFID. Program that into your own RFID chip and pass right on through the tolls on someone elses buck, get into a community without having to deal with security or get free gas and food at any Exxon/Mobil station with Speedpass.

Check out these informational videos: (don't worry, no real hacking directions in them.) http://mirror.isi.jhu.edu/movies/sniffing.mov   - 3MB Grabbing data from someones RFID http://www.rfidanalysis.org.nyud.net:8090/cracking_s.mov   - 11MB cracking RFID data (you can do this now without all that clunky homebrew hardware) http://mirror.isi.jhu.edu/movies/car.mov   - 26MB Hacking a car to start http://mirror.isi.jhu.edu/movies/speedpass.mov  - 36MB buying gas

I think it's cool but I'd with something a little more secure like biometrics.

damn character limit...
