E.U. official: Now isn't time for RFID regulations

RFID should be regulated NOW: Before the process proliferates and everything has a chip!
There are already labels available for medical and research samples, bracelets to track "visitors", and if Uncle has his way, there will be one in every passport, drivers license or other ID card and all bank cards. And ANYBODY that can set up a radio receiver will be able to track them.

Granted there are great uses, inventory control being one of the easiest to implement, but the invasion of privacy will be tremendous.; Posted by: night-hunter Posted on: 04/03/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
