ACTE - RFID, STOP THE MADNESS!

The ACTE (Association of Corporate Travel Execs) a US based association representing Corporate Travel folks, has requested a full stop on the deployment of Passports using RFIDs.

While I am not a huge fan of RFID - it represents the best of what is out there at the moment. To try and stop this is like trying to be King Canute and holding back the waves. As Europe and many other countries around the world have already adopted the RFID based passports - the chances of preventing further deployment is slim and none. I have one of the new RFID enabled passports and an RFID based enhanced Driver's License. For sure they stay in their shielded cases...

Cheers
