RFID Tags Don't Work That Well 11/03/2003 12:21 PM
For all the focus on how RFID tags could lead to invasions of privacy or how Wal-Mart is going to use them in all parts of their operation, one thing that many people have apparently overlooked is the fact that the technology still isn't all that reliable. I'm sure it will get better and the problems will get fixed, but this report points out that the technology doesn't work all that well sometimes. Everyone admits that RFID systems are likely to become a big thing, but the timing may not be as fast as has been predicted. In fact, some are wondering if the smaller companies providing RFID technology will be able to stay in business long enough.

Benetton is buying 15 million RFID (radio frequency identification) tags to attach to the labels in their clothing as an anti-theft measure. People are freaked out (again) about privacy issues, but the reality (at least today) is that the range of RFID tech is too short for someone to drive by your house and scan your closet. Still, it does make sense to zap the tags out of commission once items are paid for. Link Discuss

RFID tags gaining in popularity but
consumer beware
07/01/2004 03:53 PM

Some big names in business are investing serious cash in researching RFID tags. I have no doubt that RFID tags will be on virtually everything including embedded in clothes, consumer products etc. I am aware of the power of tracking products consumable products from cradle to grave.

Imagine buying some steaks at Costco and taking them home and when you put them in your refrigerator you push a inventory button and your Wifi connected fridge broadcast the updated information to your computer. You want to see where those steaks came from login to your PC and connect to national database which includes information that gives you DOB of the Steer, what the animal was fed, what type of injections it had, what processing plant processed the meat, where it was stored, what temperature variations the meat was subjected etc.

Does this sound far-fetched. Well I challenge that in 5 years or less this will be possible. But I caution you this could be a two way street. You buy a pack of cigarettes at Walmart on your debit card this purchase is tracked and then your life insurance company buys a profile about your buying habits and then send you a rate increase because now you are a high risk client in that you are a candidate for lung cancer.

Think about that the next time you see a RFID tag. [Infoworld]
