Those desiring education of intelligent design here in Ohio have been infiltrating the board of eduction for years. This is just another embarrassment most likely welcomed by our current governor who just happens to be anti-public eduction. As usual it's a silent baby step, that this time, got noticed.
Wasn't Google Desktop supposed to be good for blocking poppups and, in essence, ads and other crap? So now is it going to inject DoubleClick ads and crap at users, not to mention steal marketing information? More than likely they'll set it up to circumvent firewall and HOSTS blocking.
I guess I'll continue to say 'no' whenever an install subtly asks, "do you [i]not[/i] want to install Google Desktop". But that's another rant.
Don't they realize how easy it is to walk by one of these implanted persons with an RFID reader; then with your copy of their transmitted ID, make your own and impersonate implanted wearer? It doesn't stop there; you could re-program their device with another ID, perhaps with the ID of a known felon or such. All this can be done a few feet away from the carrier. It has even been proven possible to re-program an RFID to arrange a buffer overflow against the reading application, or just attack the reading system from the start. Sounds like a bit of trouble for a non-secure ID system; cachet zero.
