Arguably it's not very different (other than the RF exposure you'll get at the checkout counter) from a barcode tag. On the other hand, plans for RFID tags go beyond stickers on boxes. Suppose they were, say, sewn into a jacket? THEN your person becomes trackable well after you leave the store. A similar argument raged recently over binding RFID tags into passports, for similar reasons. -Bill _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
