RFID tags become hacker target

Worse than that.: With RFID tags, the stores will be able to get rid of the checkout clerks. You push your cart through the reader station, and it totals your bill, nicks your credit card, and prints you a receipt. At least that's the idea.

This is just not going to work, folks. These things will be hacked as soon as they're in the stores.; Posted by: gordon@... Posted on: 07/29/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
