Privacy with RFIDs
It seems as though the Homeland Security Department has created another ID tag with the latest technology. The new card will feature Bluetooth and RF with Biometric info and personal security data. The user will authenticate with a swipe of the card and a fingerprint. It's got all the usually security features for government IDs (Wired Article). I'd like to see, but I know we'll know never unless a major screw up happens, if the Bluetooth signal will release information around the user. DC will start to see more wireless hackers and Bluetooth identity thieves in the coming months when the tags get their first go-around.
Will the general public need this type of technology to use a credit card, drive a car, leave/enter the country, access bank accounts? How would personal info and identities be affected by carrying them around in your pocket? What happened to the RF tags in the skin? Wouldn't people try and steal those too?
