Former Bush official to get RFID tag | CNET News.com
Tommy Thompson, the Health and Human Services Secretary in President Bush's first term and a former Governor of Wisconsin, is going to get tagged.Thompson has joined the board of Applied Digital, which owns VeriChip, the company that specializes in subcutaneous RFID tags for humans and pets.
To help promote the concepts behind the technology, Thompson himself will get an RFID tag implanted under his skin.
VeriChip is pushing the term "chipped" for implantation of an RFID tag in a human. I've still only heard the term used in articles about VeriChip so far though.
