I found this rather amusing Americans invent the smart-chips & RFID but won't use it. More to the point don't trust it, mean while MR Crook is having a wonderful time making copy Credit cards with the swipe magnetic stripe because it's 30 year old technology and you can buy the gear to do it on eBay for $50. There losing billions of greenbacks & the banks won't implement it, because it will cost money even though it's now the world standard......
