i'm mostly concerned with its implications for the future.
the higher powered the reader is, the farther away it can read it... and crypto can be broken-- especially since it's limited by the relatively small space available on an RF tag.
do you know about the real ID act? "Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Washington have joined Maine and Utah in passing legislation opposing Real ID." "Similar resolutions are pending in Alaska, Arizona, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington, D.C., West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming." you wonder how it got in in the first place... oh! it was snuck in.
the more ID requirements are in place, the more our privacy can be breached or our rights be taken.
