Big firms put off RFID trial
May 14, 2007

Source: Stuff (NZ)
Privacy advocates fearful that RFID tags may be used by consumer goods companies to track our every move can sleep easily for a while longer, now that two initiatives to speed up the introduction of the technology in New Zealand appear to have become bogged down.

However, there are fears that RFID tags could be scanned secretly once consumers have taken goods home from shops, raising the possibility the technology could be used to snoop on the contents of people’s handbags, for example. Overseas, RFID champion Wal-Mart has scaled back its goals for the technology. Only 600 of the retailers’ 20,000 suppliers are tagging their shipments to Wal-Mart with RFID chips, four years after it issued an edict announcing that RFID tags would be mandatory. Information Week reports that the consensus among businesses in the US is that the technology will find a place.
