RFID (do you realy want to be track, again)

RFID is fine for tracking baggage, BUT if your baggage is not lost the authorities, whoever they are can track you (the person) as and when you travel with your baggage. I think that this is taking BIG BROTHER one step to far.

If the airlines and airport did their job correctly in the first place there would not be a need for electronically tracking baggage or people.

RFID chips are expensive to produce and it a fair bet that we the travelling public will again pick up the cost, again.
