From what I've been reading froma few months back RFID is really.....really easy for a hacker to screw with.
Hence: this bufoolery
I dont't know whats said about RFID in this Obama video, but whatever it is, you can throw it out the window.
Cliff notes: on the link that leads to article:
Guy rides in his car around San Fran with his Motorola RFID box connected to his laptop.
Guy clones real peoples passport info from RFID enabled passports and drivers licenses residing in the vehicles he passesLIVE in traffic.
Victims have no way of knowing the car next to them is stealing the info, until its too late.
He bought the box and laptop on ebay (so anyone could pull it off with the right software).
RFID sucks and is useless.
He only drove for twenty min and he stole all that info.
He is a whitehat hacker (the kind of hacker that demonstrates these things so they can be fixed.)
