Just get a steel or aluminum case for your license to shield the signal. No biggie. The issue is a biggie, but as a practical matter, shield the chip, no prob. You can also shock the chip and/or magnetize and wipe the chip. These government mopes think they're SO clever..

Homeland Security seeks next-generation REAL ID

Washington state's enhanced driver's license
Privacy advocates are issuing warnings about a new radio chip plan that ultimately could provide electronic identification for every adult in the U.S. and allow agents to compile attendance lists at anti-government rallies simply by walking through the assembly.
The proposal, which has earned the support of Janet Napolitano, the newly chosen chief of the Department of Homeland Security, would embed radio chips in driver's licenses, or "enhanced driver's licenses."
"Enhanced driver's licenses give confidence that the person holding the card is the person who is supposed to be holding the card, and it's less elaborate than REAL ID," Napolitano said in a Washington Times report.
REAL ID is a plan for a federal identification system standardized across the nation that so alarmed governors many states have adopted formal plans to oppose it. However, a privacy advocate today told WND that the EDLs are many times worse.
Radio talk show host and identity chip expert Katherine Albrecht said REAL ID earned the opposition of Christians because of its resemblance to the biblical "mark of the beast," civil libertarians opposed it for its "big brother" connotations and others worried about identity theft issues with the proposed databases.
"We got rid of the REAL ID program, but [this one] is way more insidious," she said.
Enhanced driver's licenses have built-in radio chips providing an identifying number or information that can be accessed by a remote reading unit while the license is inside a wallet or purse.
The technology already had been implemented in Washington state, where it is promoted as an alternative to a passport for traveling to Canada. So far, the program is optional.
But there are other agreements already approved with Michigan, Vermont, New York and Arizona, and plans are under way in other states, including Texas, she said.

Great! Now I have a reason to get an aluminum case to match my aluminum hat and my aluminum panties. So, do you think these chips will broadcast NPR? Will they at least vibrate or give off little shocks? Hmmm....the possibilities are endless..

These chips, they're like the ones in the toll pods, EZ Pass, Smart Tag, like that. It emits a low-powered encoded RF signal. It's easy to spoof and copy. They would like to implant it in each of us. It's tiny, smaller than a small pea. Since we won't go for the implant, they'll embed it in the common D.L.. Credit Cards are going to these because the magnetic strips are too easy to copy and duplicate. Shield the new license in aluminum, it won't broadcast past that, they can't track it. To force the cops to enter your info the old fashioned way, just zap the chip to destroy it.
But no, Cass, it won't vibrate, no NPR, and no possibilities other than to track yo' assssss!

And, whether you know it or not MONEY will soon no longer be "anonymous".
You go to the bank and cash your check.
The cash the teller gives you has a small 'chip' about the size of the dot of an "i".
It is scanned in, and you become "associated" with that money.
Now they know where you spend it ...or NOT.
Drug raid - BINGO.
Abortion clinic - YEP.
Viagra - Ummmm...OK
Thief gets it? OH, YEAH BABY!
Of course you can give it to your child ... or the neighbor's kid ... or put it in the Salvation Army pot ...
But eventually ... "your" money goes back in the bank and a loose "link" is made between whoever brought it and YOU.
You'll learn a lot of nifty things in this video.
America: From Freedom to Fascism
I guess they're doing it because every cow in America is now microchipped ... "they" can locate an individual cow almost immediately.
They can't find the Illegals, though.
Maybe they should give all of them a cow.
