如果你老闆已經準備好給每個員工一針RFID，也許你可以考慮逃到美國加州去避避
風頭。就在這幾天，加州通過了一道禁止強迫員工植入RFID的法令。

根據立法者Joe Simitian參議員表示，RFID雖然是個科技上的偉大奇蹟，但也是有
史以來最強大的個人隱私殺手。

我們相信此法一立，很多州都會群而傚之，以避免更多的員工行蹤被他們的上司所
掌握。看來VeriChip的植入計畫將面臨更多的挑戰囉。

我們不能否認人體RFID背後的龐大商機，但我們相信科技是用來讓人更自由，而不
是讓人更受控制。RFID可以在釘書針上，可以在信用卡裡，但我可不希望連上個廁
所都有人知道---不過，能擋多久呢...

The debate over RFID implants continues to rage on several fronts, as California has just enacted a measure prohibiting employers from requiring employees to get tagged.

The bill's sponsor, state senator Joe Simitian, says RFID is a "minor miracle," but called mandatory tagging "the ultimate invasion of privacy."

California joins Wisconsin and North Dakota in prohibiting required RFID implantation, and we'd expect to see other states follow suit -- although embattled RFID vendor VeriChip says only 2,000 people have implants, the jury is still out on safety of the devices, and the idea of being required to get an implant is pretty distasteful -- exactly the sort of soundbite-friendly issue a politician can get behind.
