| Posted: | | | | i might be okay wih the tracking sometimes unless it's walmart and then it's a big fat no for me. and by sometimes i mean if it is lost, misplaced or stolen. walmart is an evil company and i dont want them putting trackers in everything. i worked their as a high school job 2 years ago and the things they do are not good and illegal. |

I am sure that in the future small compact RFID killers will be available for commercial use If they are not forbidden until then. Do not underestimate the power of commercial interests of multinational companies. Not to forget the classical "If you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear" | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up! But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?
