What did you want me to explain earlier in the topic?

lol... did you try googling RFID? I presume you don't know what an RFID chip is from your statements... RFID = Radio Frequency Identification

I didn't bother googling it lol. But yeah, I have an Uncle who works for the FBI he talks about that RFID chip with my dad all the time.

IP spoofing, its roll in use for security purposes, etc

There really isn't that much use for it in security.

Just think of it this way. You have a phone, that lets you pick your phone number. You can use any number that belongs to someone else without worry.

Websites dont "verify" if an ip address is legit or not, so you can just be like, "Hey, my ip is 72.12.1.5" and it will believe that. The government will trace the ip back to its isp, which will be like, "That belongs to this guy" when it was you that did it.

There really is no security benefit for spoofing your ip address, except that changing your ip address a lot prevent people from hacking your computer (Which never happens anyways).

But having an Ip address that downloaded a torrent file should never ever ever be enough evidence to prosecute.

I always enjoy learning about security from you, because I know you know your shit, and you make it simple. So thanks for that
