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.
RFID, which stands for Radio Frequency IDentification, is a technology that uses computer chips smaller than a grain of sand to track items from a distance. And as this mind-blowing book explains, plans and efforts are being made now by global corporations and the U.S government to turn this advanced technology, these spychips, into a way to track our daily activities-and keep us all on Big Brother's short leash. Compiling massive amounts of research with firsthand knowledge, Chips espías explains RFID technology and reveals the history and future of the master planners' strategies to imbed these trackers on everything-from postage stamps to shoes to people themselves-and spy on Americans without our knowledge or consent. It also urgently encourages consumers to take action now-to protect their privacy and civil liberties before it's too late.
What critics are saying about Chips espías, 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
