RFID, que significa identificación de radiofrecuencia, es una tecnología que utiliza chips de computadora más diminutos que un grano de arena para rastrear artículos desde cierta distancia. Tal como este libro lo explica, existen planes actualmente de corporaciones globales y del gobierno de los Estados Unidos para convertir esta tecnología avanzada, estos Chips espías, en métodos para rastrear nuestras actividades diarias y mantenernos al alcance del Hermano Mayor. Chips espías compila cantidades masivas de investigación junto con el conocimiento de primera mano, explicando la tecnología RFID y revela la historia y el futuro de las estrategias de un plan maestro para que estos chips se encuentren en todas las cosas, desde estampillas o zapatos hasta las mismas personas y así vigilar a los estadounidenses con o sin su consentimiento. También estimula de manera urgente a los consumidores para que actúen ahora y protejan su privacidad y las libertades civiles antes de que sea demasiado tarde. - E-bokEngelska, 2005

Big Brother gets up close and personal.
Do you know about RFID (Radio Frquency IDentification)? Well, you should, because in just a few short years, this explosive new technology could tell marketers, criminals, and government snoops everything about you.
Welcome to the world of spychips, where tiny computer chips smaller than a grain of sand will trace everyday objects?and even people?keeping tabs on everything you own and everywhere you go. In this startling, eye-opening book, you''ll learn how powerful corporations are planning a future where:
Strangers will be able to scan the contents of your purse or briefcase from across a room. Stores will change prices as you approach-squeezing extra profits out of bargain shoppers and the poor. The contents of your refrigerator and medicine cabinet will be remotely monitored. Floors, doorways, ceiling tiles, and even picture frames will spy on you?leaving virtually no place to hide. microchip implants will track your every move?and even broadcast your conversations remotely or electroshock you if you step out of line.This is no conspiracy theory. Hundreds of millions of dollars have already been invested in what global corporations and the government are calling "the hottest new technology since the bar code." Unless we stop it now, RFID could strip away our last shreds of privacy and usher in a nightmare world of total surveillance?to keep us all on Big Brother''s very short leash.
What critics are saying about Spychips, the book:
Spychips "make[s] a stunningly powerful argument against plans for RFID being mapped out by government agencies, retail and manufacturing companies." ?Evan Schuman, CIO Insight
"The privacy movement needs a book. I nominate Spychips." ?Marc Rotenberg, EPIC
"Brilliantly written; so scary and depressing I want to put it down, so full of fascinating vignettes and facts that I can''t put it down." ?Author Claire Wolfe
Spychips "makes a very persuasive case that some of America''s biggest companies want to embed tracking technology into virtually everything we own, and then study our usage patterns 24 hours a day. It''s a truly creepy book and well worth reading." ?Hiawatha Bray, Boston Globe
"You REALLY want to read this book." ?Laissez Faire

Ever feel like you''re being watched? This eye-opening book shows how a new technology may soon track your every move . . . and pave the way for the fulfillment of end-time biblical prophecy.
A revolutionary technology called RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) is poised to expose our habits, secrets, and slip-ups to money-hungry marketers, savvy criminals, and government snoops. One day soon, our shoes could keep track of our footsteps. Stores could ID us as we walk in the door. Hidden "tracking units" could log even our restroom visits.
Global corporations and government agencies have already invested millions in a plan that uses tiny microchips to uniquely number and track everyday items. Parts of this Orwellian vision are uncannily similar to the prophesies of Revelation. Chipping inanimate objects is just the start-the endpoint is a form of RFID that can be injected into the flesh. This work-an updated version of Katherine Albrecht and Liz McIntyre''s controversial and award-winning book Spychips-is a clarion call to Christians to take a stand against plans to monitor and control people through this unnerving new technology.
Using public records, real-world examples, and biblical prophesies, Albrecht and McIntyre uncover the frightening story behind RFID and show us how to protect our privacy and civil liberties while there''s still time.
