My new passport
My new passport has an embedded RFID chip with several security flaws. The passport is valid for ten years and if the advances in hacking technology progresses at the rate it has over the last ten years I could likely have my passport identity stolen and duplicated within five years.
Every other page has a mention of God. In the back of the passport is what looks like a spy satellite pointed towards earth. There is a reference to the “new world order.”
Welcome to international travel. Everyone is watching you.

hi,
there was a simple and abit hilarious way of disabling the rfid on your passport..

“The best approach? Hammer time. Hitting the chip with a blunt, hard object should disable it. A nonworking RFID doesn’t invalidate the passport, so you can still use it.”
Happy hammering Ejovi!
- The imagery sounds spooky enough, plus ‘new world order’? now iam curious to see what it looks like.

I wrote some applications and it could be an inexpensive way to test your theories; being mobile, makes it cooler too.
