From Chip & Pin to VeriPay

Applied Digital Solutions, Inc., an advanced technology development company, announced that the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Scott R. Silverman, in his speech at the ID World in Paris, France, revealed the Company’s newest subdermal RFID solution called VeriPay™.

VeriPay is intended to be a secure, subdermal RFID (radio frequency identification) payment technology for cash and credit transactions.About the size of a grain of rice, VeriChip™ is the world’s first subdermal, radio frequency identification (RFID) microchip that can be used in a variety of security, financial, emergency identification and other applications.

The VeriPay announcement came just a few days after a USA Today article about emerging technologies highlighted one of the major limitations of using RFID technology for payment and credit transactions. After discussing various potential formats for RFID payment systems, including cards, earrings or pens, the USA Today article stated:

“Still, experts note that one big hurdle remains for RFID systems: security. Lose your RFID-enabled card or earring, and someone else could easily use it to run up charges – especially if no signature is required.”

In that same article, an executive with a major credit card company said this about his company’s RFID payment technology:

“Ultimately, it could be embedded in anything – someday, maybe even under the skin.”

At ID World in Paris, Mr. Silverman made the point that the subdermal RFID VeriPay technology specifically addresses the security issue.

VeriPay’s unique, under-the-skin format offers a much more secure, tamper-proof, and loss-proof solution.

VeriPay brings to consumers the benefits of fast and reliable RFID technology along with the security of a subdermal format.In announcing VeriPay to ID World delegates, Mr. Silverman expressed his belief that VeriPay has enormous marketplace potential and invited banking and credit companies to partner with VeriChip Corporation in developing specific commercial applications, beginning with appropriate pilot programs and other market tests, for the VeriPay subdermal RFID solution.

Welcome to the VeriChip World, a wondrous place filled with biomechanical, once human, sentient beings, capable of absolutely no free will, cognitions, or philosophies, a truly beautiful place where the drones (as they are now called) live in complete harmony with one another, this is no ordinary world, this is VERICHIP WORLD!

Big Brother's BLACK BOX

Governments world wide are attempting to increase surveillance powers in an effort to crack down on Internet-related crimes. However, the latest tool in the war against online crimes and illicit attacks on networks has international privacy advocates up in arms.

The so-called "black box" -- in reality, a computer in its own secured case -- may soon be required by the British government to be connected to the networks of Internet service providers. Running modified intrusion detection programs, the boxes will be capable of "sniffing" traffic between the ISP and citizens' computers, gleaning information upon demand.

Russia has already embarked on a similar project. In the United States, meanwhile, some ISPs are vowing to resist the FBI's Carnivore (now with different name) surveillance system, which has the potential to keep tabs on all of the communications on an ISP's network.

Intelligence agencies stress that the black boxes will help them fight computer hackers. Opponents counter that, not only will the boxes be ineffective in practice, the snooping tools could easily be abused.

"The capability is there to spy on everyone," said Yaman Akdeniz, director of CyberRights & CyberLiberties, a prominent British campaigner, who is concerned that an increase in surveillance powers could be open to covert abuse, a topic of much concern following recent revelations regarding Echelon. "Whether they do or not is the question. I think nobody trusts the security services now."

Britain already has legislation on the table that would put such a snooping network in place. Prime minister Tony Blair's Labour government has been battling with civil liberties advocates for months over the Regulation of Investigatory Powers (RIP) Bill, which requires British ISPs to install black box devices.

Under the RIP Bill, British police will have the right to intercept email traffic with a warrant. Intercepted traffic will be sent to the new Technical Assistance Centre, operated by MI5.
The Home Office and British police insist the Bill will prove a telling weapon for fighting hackers. "The reason we support the RIP Bill," says a representative from Scotland Yard's Computer Crime Unit, "is that it gives us some means to fight hacking. This is seen to be growing from recreational hacking to more serious crime. There is even the potential for political hacking."
The Russian government has gone even further, using a regulatory change from an existing agency to implement a network of black boxes.

In Russia, the System of Ensuring Investigative Activity (Sorm), introduced new regulations effective since February, requiring ISPs to install the black boxes that re-route traffic to the headquarters of FSB (Federal Security Service), which recently replaced the Russian intelligence service, the KGB.

Russia's black boxes will be used mainly to catch criminals ranging from "tax evaders to paedophiles", according to the FSB, although Russia has often been celebrated as international hotbed of hacking.

"We Russians don't drink any more. We now work on computers, we use computers to send viruses to the West and then we poach your money. We have the best hackers in the world," ultra-nationalist politician Vladimir Zhirinovsky once famously commented on live television.

SOMARK - SO Very Wrong!

Somark’s ID system is based on a biocompatible ink tattoo with chipless RFID functionality.

When applied, the ink creates a unique ID that can be remotely detected without line of sight.

The technology creates a synthetic biometric or fake fingerprint with Biocompatible Chipless RFID Ink.

So basically, Somark are responsible for the ominous, and long-feared Human Barcode system.

Somark Innovations are the evil twin of VeriChip, the company behind Human micro-chipping. Between the two corporations, which incidentally, have the financial backing of vast multi-billion dollar conglomerates, and the American and British governments, they can remove any notions of freedom for mankind in the future.

Somark, alongside Verichip, will gradually use propoganda and fear to ensure that you MUST have their technology otherwise you will be in great danger, and if you refuse their technologies in the future, YOU will be perceived as a TERRORIST, or SOCIAL DEVIANT, a DANGER, and a THREAT to, the all important, NATIONAL SECURITY.

Please; The World Of EyeCeyE begs you to watch out for these companies, and study how quickly they gain approval from the FDA and the WHO, the quicker these technologies are approved and deemed safe for humans, the more money has been exchanged under the table.

WE are NOT SAFE! WE ARE in DANGER! But NOT from Terrorists, Muslims, or any others opposed to Christian Westerners, We are in Danger from our own Governments, our supposedly free countries, our liberal democracies!

DON'T BE A SHEEP! In the words of Bob Marley, STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS!!!!!

Peace and Love to all those who believe in our basic human rights to be free! xxx

Thought Police disguised as GOOGLE!!

“The telescreen received and transmitted simultaneously. Any sound Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper, would be picked up by it.”—George Orwell, 1984

In George Orwell’s vision of the future, Big Brother was always watching and the Thought Police were always listening. Little did Orwell realize when his futuristic book was published in 1949 that his conception of an eavesdropping technology would one day become a reality. Yet if Google succeeds in its pursuit of a new Internet technology that would enable your computer to “listen” to what’s being watched on your TV, that reality may happen sooner than you like.

The prototype software for the ambient-audio identification technology, which was described in a research paper presented by Google officials earlier this year, would be a boon for marketers and advertisers. According to Technology Review, the new technology “uses a computer's built-in microphone to listen to the sounds in a room. It then filters each five-second snippet of sound to pick out audio from a TV, reduces the snippet to a digital ‘fingerprint,’ searches an Internet server for a matching fingerprint from a pre-recorded show, and, if it finds a match, displays ads, chat rooms, or other information related to that snippet on the user's computer.” In other words, the “fingerprint” is used by Google to match Internet advertisements that would appeal to you, the computer user, based on your TV-viewing preferences.

The idea is that Google would be able to attract more advertisers by providing them with direct access to consumers’ wants. As the Technology Review article explains, “Nicole Kidman fans, for instance, might enjoy knowing what dress she’s wearing on a broadcast of ‘Extra!’ or where they can buy a similar outfit. Or ads for Cooper Minis might appear whenever the car showed up in TV rebroadcast of The Italian Job.

”Recognizing that this new technology will cause a flood of privacy concerns, Google insists that the only information revealed from your listening computer would be your TV-watching preferences. In fact, according to Google, the “fingerprinting technology” used to monitor your TV watching makes it impossible to eavesdrop on other sounds in the room such as personal conversations. But do they really think we are that naïve? Google’s track record when it comes to protecting freedom has not been all that stellar.

Lest we forget, it was Google that agreed to censor its search services in China in order to gain greater access to China’s fast-growing market. However, this agreement to restrict access to thousands of sensitive terms and websites means that Google is collaborating with an authoritarian regime to further repress the Chinese people.

The reality is that Google’s listening apparatus is merely the latest in a series of yet-to-be revealed invasive snooping devices. Indeed, using a personal computer to listen in on your TV habits is only a small step away from audio software that can record your living room small talk or, even worse, webcams that would videotape everything that goes on in the comfort of your own home.

Make no mistake about it: this is a privacy nightmare. And it is especially true in light of AOL’s recent security breakdown that resulted in the accidental release of more than 600,000 of its members’ search records. Moreover, it is widely believed that existing Internet software already puts Google and other search engines in your living room today.

As Technology Review points out, “Google probably already knows what search terms you use, what Web pages you’re viewing, and what you write about in your email.” Danny Sullivan, the editor of Search Engine Watch, an observer of the various search engine providers, confirms this. He notes that search engines retain records detailing all the websites that people visit, along with the search terms they use to find the websites.

Even more troubling, these search terms and websites are directly traceable to you, the user.Yet despite the modern capabilities of search engines to delve into Americans’ psyches by monitoring their Internet search habits, recording sounds from one’s living room raises the bar. This is especially true considering the skill of modern computer hackers.

“Pretty soon the security industry is going to find a way to hijack the Google feed and use it for full on espionage,” one commentator observed, adding, “we should think that ‘spyware’ might take on an extra meaning if someone less scrupulous decided on a similar piece of software.”

Perhaps the most frightening aspect of this technology is that it comes at a time when government agencies are attempting to find as many ways as possible to eavesdrop on citizens, including demanding the search records of Internet users.

For example, in 2005, the White House attempted to subpoena the search records of millions of Americans, including those used by Google. And, of course, this is in addition to government attempts to bypass laws designed to protect Americans’ private phone calls.

In an era marked by stealthy and vaguely ominous attempts to detect and stamp out perceived terrorists, the government will only become more aggressive in its efforts to eavesdrop on Americans through their phones and computers.

So the next time you start flipping through television channels, you may need to worry more about who is listening in on you than what you are watching.

How can WE as supposedly FREE HUMAN BEINGS tolerate this kind of invasion of privacy and allow our freedoms to gradually removed to the point that we are, in effect, being watched as we watch fish swimming in fish bowls, or screws watching every move of prison inmates.

WILL YOU JUST SIT THERE AND ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN????????

FIGHT THE WORLD CONTROLLERS, EMANCIPATE YOURSELF FROM MENTAL SLAVERY!!

If this carries on I will sell my pc, and all my gadgets, which we hold so dear, is it worth the loss of freedom, the loss of freedom of speech, the right to live and speak, and have opinions, and hold your own moral beliefs and ethics. Do we need to live in a nanny state, do we need to be told what to wear, when to wear them, what to eat, and how much, what to think, and when to act????

Peace and Love in a totalitarian, oppressive nightmare we call Earth x
