They are usually HF tags which means they can only be read at about 3-4 inches away. In the past they have used this to keep a log of who visited what booths so the vendors can follow up with you afterwards. Its pretty obvious if someone scans your tag because they basically have to hold a reader up to it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[RT]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 30th 2007 3:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on CES 2008 going RFID]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</guid><description><![CDATA[That statement about not selling the info seems to be a lie.<br><br>Every year I have had a booth at CES I have paid to get the info from the swipe cards.<br><br>Does that mean this year the info will be given away for free???]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob Hephner]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 30th 2007 5:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on CES 2008 going RFID]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</guid><description><![CDATA[no, it means you'll pay more for the info b.c its RFID now! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ketel1]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 31st 2007 10:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on CES 2008 going RFID]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</guid><description><![CDATA[Please don't bring back memories of the food court and the $3 i spent on a single apple there or the hour line for starbucks.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Barry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 31st 2007 11:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on CES 2008 going RFID]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/30/ces-2008-going-rfid/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hello From South Africa!!..i see Big Brother slowly be creepin into everybody's lives. <br>It would be interesting to think of applications to use the data they collect at runtime. e.g If (Male (ID.Postion ) = Female (Id.

I'm glad events like CES are helping in the fight to make people more comfortable with being tracked and identified everywhere they go. If you want to help, embed your children with RFID, and make sure to take them to DisneyLand to get their fingerprints taken! This way, when they are teenagers, they won't think its odd when the police scan their prints for no apparent reason. Keep your family out of trouble, join the surveillance revolution!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jesse]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 1st 2007 12:58PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
