Do you even read your own stuff?

From your quote:
". . . will be releasing a $50 kit at the end of August that will make reading 125-kHz RFID chips ? the kind embedded in employee access cards ? trivial." (emphasis added)

And yet you go and say that this is a risk for RFID passports instead. I think before you go and then engage in juvenile writing using words like 'pwned' you should at least make sure that you're talking about equivalent items.

It'd certainly be interesting to see what actual information they got from this setup and how useful it actually is but please stop trying to use this to stir up a panic about passports until you have an actual tie-in.
