Can you switch off a pacemaker?

In a "60 Minutes" interview, ex-vp Dick Cheney says his cardiologist blocked wireless access to his pacemaker out of fear that someone could hack into the system and shock him to death.



Is this even possible? If so, should everyone with a pacemaker worry about everybody he's ever pissed off? (I'm asking whether this is technically possible, and if so how to prevent it. Discussions of the Dark Lord's evil impact on America would be for another thread.)

(The interviewer also asked him whether his many heart surgeries could have affected his brain function and intellectual capacity. Cheney says no.)
