		<description><![CDATA[A copule of years ago, governments around the world began deploying RFID enabled identity documents, including passports and drivers licenses.  Knowing this was coming, I renewed my passport before RFID was included.  I&#8217;m a paranoid geek, but then I&#8217;m an IT security guy, so paranoia is part of the job description.
Last week, Geeks are Sexy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Perhaps I&#8217;m just getting to be an old timer. When I started managing computer systems for the telephone company in the late 1980s, the game was to break into systems primarily to learn something.  Occasionally there were malicious attempts to access information, such as the phreak&#8217;s setting themselves up with free phone service, but for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the most distressing things about being a security professional in today&#8217;s IT environment is what seems like a lax attitude towards securing customer information. All that could change if a ruling by the FTC against ValueClick, a spammer, stands up in court. In addition to settling with ValueClick regarding violations of the CAN-SPAM [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The expanding use of RFID chips, and their ever-decreasing size, has led to what sounds like science fiction to me. A company called Nox Defense has created RFID tags so small that they are calling it &#8220;RFID dust&#8221;, and saying these tags can be scattered on the ground and then, per the original article on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week, I wrote about the possibility of having your smartphone searched when you&#8217;re pulled over for a traffic violation. This is even more concerning, the Washington Post has this article up about searches of laptop and other electronic devices by federal agents in airports.
The lawsuit was inspired by two dozen cases, 15 of which [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Found over on CNN, an alarming article on the latest plans the FBI has to catalog everything about you, more or less.
The FBI is gearing up to create a massive computer database of people&#8217;s physical characteristics, all part of an effort the bureau says to better identify criminals and terrorists.
It&#8217;s really there to track criminals [...]]]></description>

For a quick recap, CAPTCHA generates images consisting of letters and numbers, then [...]]]></description>
