thanks for the video. the guy who is doing demo of stealing the credit card numbers from credit cards with rfid has a company that sells RFID blocking purses, sleeves, passport sleeves . he says even simple tinfoil can be used but it is not sexy. scary to see this

Thanks for the video Ellipse !

This is seriously old issue and they are covering it now ? I wonder if it has something to do with cyberwar stuff that they want us all to be scared of.
It is like a 3 or even 4 years old (officially)
Attacks on ePassports were presented officially on DEFCON 14 which was in 2006 lolz
Even cnn covered it in 2006 http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/07/10/rfid/
So what about all that fuzz now ? :D

In general , this is well known technology , everyone can test it and use it in a good or bad way.
There are plenty of tools to test RFID technology.

Few examples:
