2) What is a RFID chip? Describe what it does, and where it may be useful.

3) On page 36, it talks about Identity theft. Analyze the passage, and determine what you can do to help prevent the theft of your identity.

5) On page 68, the author states that "not even the most extreme measures will disconnect our digital selves from the rest of the world." Justify this statement by giving several examples. Also refute this claim, and give evidence why it may not be true.
