This is pretty wierd, an dapprently its not the first time its been done. A city in Japan has decided to tag it’s school kids with RFID chips. Read about it here.

I’m not sure how I feel about this. I mean, I can see where they are coming from with the idea, it would be a lot easier to keep track of the kids in case something happened…but on the other hand it just makes it too easy to keep track of people. I think this is more than likely how we’ll see the situation come about in “minority report”…where people will start seeing ads specifically targeted to them and referring to them by name.
