Tags (and chips)
Not a new species of fish.
Not just available from a takeaway
....ready supplied free of charge in everything that moves
.... your clothes, your money, your car tyres etc etc
................................and YOU
"Tags are useful to track criminals so are a good thing"
"These new style tags are tiny and unobtrusive, so must be cheaper"
"I don't mind having everything tagged. If you don't break the law you have nothing to fear"
Laws can be changed and what was legitimate one day can be criminal the next.
Often without a vote of any sort, by some unelected quango.
Who would have ever thought that it would be 'criminal' to
......smoke a fag in a bus shelter
......park on a double yellow line at 3am in a deserted town centre
(you can probably think of more)
RFID Chips Are Here
These chips act as transponders (transmitters/responders), always listening for a radio signal sent by transceivers, or RFID readers. When a transponder receives a certain radio query, it responds by transmitting its unique ID code, perhaps a 128-bit number, back to the transceiver. Most RFID tags don't have batteries (How could they? They're 1/3 of a millimeter!). Instead, they are powered by the radio signal that wakes them up and requests an answer.
