Radio tags spark privacy worries

Radio tags spark privacy worries

You could have a shop that notices that you are wearing a Versace clothes and vary the level of services and prices accordingly "

I have heard about these tags but not realised that they were in such wide spread use. Nor, that their effective range was only 10 metres. But why worry that your clothes size is being transmitted around the shop? Vanity!

I don't like the idea of a burglar scanning my house to see what goodies are inside, but sure there'll be some effective way to stop this.

On the whole I like the idea, and there'll be plenty of benefits for the consumer to come out of this technology. Less shop lifters and thus lower prices is one.
