RFID Injection Required for Datacenter Access

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the one-way-to-make-sure-we're-working dept.

user24 writes "Security focus reports that RFID injections are now required for access to the datacenter of a Cincinnati company. From the article 'In the past, employees accessed the room with an RFID tag which hung from their keychains, however under the new regulations an implantable, glass encapsulated RFID tag from VeriChip must be injected into the bicep to gain access ... although the company does not require the microchips be implanted to maintain employment.'"

    ...the "injection" required to gain access while in prison.

    An extension of Godwin's Law called the "Milestone Law" for message boards should be considered that says:

    "if Godwin's Law is cited in response to a Nazi/Hitler reference, the thread should be considered to be automatically over"

      That is a flawed law, as it assumes Godwin's Law is always correctly applied. The choice use of "should" in this case, where "sometimes" or "most of the time" would be better for clairifying the statement, indicates a kind of emotional sence of justice, rather than a logical conclusion.
