If your credit card has an embedded smart chip, (also referred to as a contactless payment system) there is no RFID or any wireless happening. So a thief or hacker CANNOT steal information from your credit card's smart chip without actually touching because they emit no radio waves.

It costs about £10 to £15 to get your dog microchipped by a vet or vet nurse, and some dog groomers, dog walkers and pet sitters offer this service too. Make sure the person who microchips your dog is qualified to do so as your dog may suffer if the person is not properly trained.

Not all microchips and scanners are “universal.” Some manufacturers provide microchips in more than one of these types. The 125 kHz is the oldest U.S. frequency and is still distributed by AVID, HomeAgain, and 24PetWatch. The 128 kHz is the rarest frequency and has only been distributed by the AKC.

Despite extensive research, to date there is no evidence to conclude that exposure to low level electromagnetic fields is harmful to human health. The focus of international research is the investigation of possible links between cancer and electromagnetic fields, at power line and radiofrequencies.
