Hi Anders

Thanks for the info... that's scary stuff indeed!!:eek:

The tag system outlined in the patent includes a tag comprised of at least one antenna—which could be made of digestible material such as encapsulated metallic liquids, clays, or even liquids or gases—and an external transceiver that communicates with the tag to read the RF signals. The tag would document when a pill was digested because its antenna would also have been broken down at the same time, thus destroying the tag’s ability to receive and transmit an RF signal.Hmmm sounds delicious, can I take two of those!!:eek::rolleyes:

Very worrying indeed.

WTF..this not good stuff, a disolving antennae upon ingestion surely does elude to enforced taking of prescribed drugs...bad news..another tooth in the cog of the totalitarian tiptoe
