    i forgot the pw to a truecrypt volume that, I am sure, has some nudes of my late wife on it. annoys the heck out of me. it’s been 14 years. (the pics were from when she was alive. just… for the curious.)

    Does something like this make him a fraudulent magician?

    I would think so if I ever found out the amazing tricks I watched were just rfid triggers… just me?

    Unless he thinks a audience member will have a similar RFID chip in their hand and ruin the trick, I don’t see why you need the private key in this case. Any reader can still detect the chip which I assume is what is needed for the trick.

    Hell, it could even check the public key of the RFID chip, so you’re still safe unless an audience member clones your hand chip and embeds it in their hand.

    Unless I’m missing something.
