So, the Mythbusters were all set to do a segment on RFID security w/r/t credit cards -- until the credit card companies got wind of it, lawyered up, and pressured Discovery to quash the bit. We're sure that this makes the stupid RFID credit card implementations MUCH more secure, since everyone knows that security through obscurity is nearly foolproof.

Um. Wait.
