The Guardian said:

"If you can read the chip, then you can clone it," he says. "You could use this to clone a passport that would exploit the system to illegally enter another country."

Recommended by strangeknight: "RFID technology is used in our new biometric passports, but are they *really* more secure? Researchers in the UK and Germany have revealed some glaring security flaws. Does ICA have a response?"
