before they added the metal sheet protector in the us passports, the tag was readable up to 33 ft (thank god hackers are here.. gov't claimed it was 10CM!!!)
i don't think a magnet is feasible-- i'm not sure why but it hasn't come up as a viable option for disabling. looks like the best method is a hammer-- but tampering with passport could = 25 years in prison.
