RFID Chips - They’re Here

RFID Chips - They’re Here
By solidwords

A tragic story in the implantable microchip saga hit California last month. Lori and Ed Ginsberg had their little Chihuahua “chipped” in order to take him camping, as required by law. The Chihuahua “Charlie Brown” bled to death in front of the Ginsbergs after the rice-sized chip was inserted under his skin. The bizarre, sad tale has spurred people in San Marcos, Texas, to protest mandatory pet chipping, and has given pet owners everywhere some pause.
