Businesswire article reporting on checkpoint systems press release http://www.forbes.com/businesswire/feeds/businesswire/2008/06/19/businesswire20080619005080r1.html
EXCERPT:
Checkpoint Systems, Inc. (NYSE: CKP), a leading manufacturer and marketer of identification, tracking, security and merchandising solutions for the retail industry and its supply chain, today announced that a number of major retailers are now piloting its Evolve state-of-the-art shrink management technology, which was introduced earlier this year.
Retailers now utilizing the Evolve products include Anchor Blue, Babies R Us, CVS, LensCrafters, Kohl's, Toys R Us, Vans and Wilsons.
Evolve is Checkpoint's next-generation suite of electronic article surveillance (EAS) products. Evolve solutions provide retailers with a highly-scalable EAS system that helps reduce shrink, boost profitability and improve the customer shopping experience. In tandem with RFID technology, Evolve can also increase inventory visibility and accuracy through its in-store tracking capabilities.
Featuring improved Radio Frequency (RF) tag detection, Smart Alarm Management (SAM) to improve system integrity, and a Software Defined Radio (SDR) that can support multiple EAS and RFID tag frequencies, Evolve significantly improves the performance of traditional EAS technologies and provides retailers with a migration path for RFID adoption.
It would be neat if technology advanced to the point where you could walk into a store, pick whatever you wanted and then left with without a need to stop by the cashiers. I can see such technology implemented in 5-10 years.
You think it's OK to wear a pair of shoes that maintains a working RFID tag in it, with the potential to store and transmit unique information about you and your location wherever you walk when sensors are nearby?
I don't think it's OK. In the store, I'm willing to pick up items with tags. Out of the store, I want them removed and deactivated. And I don't want the government thinking about tagging my wallet or anything else, either.
You think it's OK to wear a pair of shoes that maintains a working RFID tag in it, with the potential to store and transmit unique information about you and your location wherever you walk when sensors are nearby?
The RFID tag does not transmit information about 'my' location. It transmits information about my shoes. If you heard about Lo-jack(sp?) and On-Star, this is already happening with cars. Some sensitive laptops are set to beam a signal at regular intervals, showing their location. The very computer from which you are currently reading this reply can be EASILY located. And, need we talk about cell phones? All of the above are much more interesting as far as tracking is concerned than groceries or apparel and they are tracked or could be tracked today, with relative ease.
Q1 - If I wear my shoes, my wife wears my shirt (she does sometimes) and someone 'finds' my laptop and walks with it then... where am I based on RFID data?
Q2 - If my wife buys underwear for the entire family then... what are you tracking? Is she going to be at 2 different schools, out of state and at the post office at the same time?

Well, the cell tower IS only tracking the phone not you...but I digress..*I* have not researched this subject at *all* and nobody has bothered to post text, (I am suspicious of moset vids on new topics and they are not at all time efficient) so let me do some research and I shall post what I can find in an attempt to get to the bottom of this. We shall see who stands to gain, the companies in question, and/or the video seller.
there is no video for sale, iit's an audio clip from a radio show. anyway here is the info in text format,
www.rense.com/ general57/RFIDtrackingdevicestogo.htm stores tried this years ago, for example gillette put rfid tags in merchandise and took peoples photos when they removed the item from the shelf, then took the photo again when the person paid for it. they do not remove the tags after the consumer leaves. walmart has mandated all their suppliers implement rfid. homeland security is putting rfid into all passports. kids are given rfid bracelets in school ''for safety'' and of late, kids are given rfid to keep them safe from gustav.
as you know, govt doesnt care about 'keeping you safe', it's about tracking and control. here is another article, from wired.
www.wired.com/wire d/archive/12.07/shoppers.html Attention, Shoppers: You Can Now Speed Straight Through Checkout Lines! Radio-frequency chips are retail nirvana. They're the end of privacy. They're the mark of the beast. Inside the tag-and-track supermarket of the future.

here is the data she covered in the recent broadcast. you may have also heard of retail supermarket chains which admit they compile and sell grocery store purchase info they compile via 'savings cards' to health insurance companies.:
