The U.S. constitution also doesn't work so well in the U.K. - if anyone actually bothered critically reading the article and all...

As for blocking, you could use faraday cages (they make them for passports now since they have all their data on RFID) but a simple change to the method of delivery and even attempting to use a technology to block the data transfer would fall under the interference regulation guidelines the FCC controls - $10,000 fine per offense.

I knew it was in the U.K, but there are similar stories in the US in private parochial schools. O_o

Sounds like it's time to start work on an RFID-carried virus!

Wow, it sounds like he certainly has a valid reason to dislike microchips in the body then.

I thought u said u hated that game

Think of this as if you were a parent, i mean it's not even abnormal to hear about kids getting bullied to extreme extents or even killed at school these days. While I don't agree with it, I can understand the reasons.

I like that you referred to fines from an american organization right after bitching about that no one bothered to read the article saying it was in england. Nice one.

Ok, now that I know what country this is in, I'll just point out England has the most CCTV cameras of anywhere else in the world. It's not surprising they're tracking children, what's surprising is that they can't already.

Big Brother is watching you. Literally.

Seems Orwell's warning has been forgotten.
