In London, a hacker wanted to prove to the world just how easy it is to fool a self-service passport scanner at the airport and was able to get clearance for a flight by using a fake passport issued to the King himself. Officials are claiming that the new passports being issued with biometric chips implanted in them that store facial, eye, and fingerprint maps of the user, are impossible to counterfeit, but one hacker wanted to prove otherwise. He created a false passport under the name of Elvis Presley and even made his own biometric chip with store bought supplies, all for less than a hundred dollars. The hacker also rigged it so a picture of Elvis would show up on the monitor display, proving the fact that the king of rock ‘n’ roll isn’t dead after all, he’s just doing some traveling.
