Spychips

Boston Globe recently had a story on the RFID technology, that has companies like Walmart salivating. Sure, it has a great potential for being very useful. But the potential for invasion of privacy is pretty great too.

Just one look at all the things enabled by this technology was enough to spook the reporter out completely. The title of the story says it all: "you need not be paranoid to fear RFID".
