In August 2023, Russian social networks circled the news that foreign television channels shot reports on the need to chip minors as part of the fight against people's trafficking. We decided to check if this is really so.
The news was most strongly diverged into Telegram, where the corresponding posts appeared in the channels "Heaven is"(159,000 views at the time of writing of the analysis),"Kostyan Cat - Official Channel"(84,000),"Gossip"(78 000),"Freshness"(62 000),"Informant"(52,000) and others also wrote about calls to implant chips for children users Platform blog and social networks ("VKontakte" Twitter). Almost all posts are accompanied by the same video recording - presumably, the same report in which they talk about the advantages of a controversial idea. In this sources, it is indicated that calls to chip minors are made in general in the West, in others - what exactly in the USA.
A video that lasts a minute one and a half, consists of a small introductory word of the host in the studio, as well as a report on GA Chip - a program within which experts collect data on children, in order to transfer information to the police in case of their loss and thereby facilitate the searches. Participation in it is voluntary and free for residents of the American state of Georgia. At the same time, the video in the posts is given without translation or at least subtitles, therefore, to check exactly what the host, correspondent and speakers are talking about, the audience needs to know English at a level sufficient to understand speech by ear.
The video is not visible of the logo of the TV channel, but there are several interviews in the report where the speakers keep a microphone with the inscription NewsDay. Thanks to the search in Google, this video can be found on YouTubeWhere it was published back in July 2010 on the NewsDaynorthfulton channel. This is a small television channel illuminating the events in Fulton, Georgia. Now his site, specified In the profile on YouTube, it does not work, therefore, perhaps, the channel itself does not exist. No reports on the need to chip children in other American media were “verified” to find.
Moreover, even in this video of 13 years ago there is not a word about chipping. The organizers of the program tell how to help families to collect color photos, digital fingerprints, information about the distinguishing features, a DNA smear, tooth imprints and other data about children. The process takes place in the presence of parents and takes 10-15 minutes, and the collected data is recorded on the carrier (the video talks about the CD-disk) and transmit to representatives of the minor.
The said in the report coincides with the information presented on the official site and in Brush GA Chip programs - there is also not a word about implanting microchips to children. Moreover, the program describes that all data are strictly confidential and, after preparing a file for a family or guardians of the child, the information collected about it is irrevocably deleted from the organization’s database.
The GA Chip program acts in Georgia (in fact, the letters GA in its name are just the designation of this state), but there are similar initiatives in other states, for example Mo Chip - In Missouri and TN Chip - In Tennessee. Their sites explicitly indicate that they do not use any invasive microchips. The department in Tennessee on the main page of his site explains that Chip is an abbreviation from Child Identification Program (“Program for identifying children”) and the name has nothing to do with chipping.
Thus, there are no calls for mass chipping of children that users of social networks write about in the Western media. The video, which usually accompanies posts with similar statements, was shot on the regional American television channel 13 years ago. At the same time, in the report itself there is not a word about chipping, as well as on the information resources of the Chip program operating in several US states. On the contrary, on some of these sites it is directly explained that no chips are implanted for children, and the name is an abbreviation that is not related to chipping.
