Concern at RFID tags in uniforms after government security breach

WARNING! This website is no longer actively maintained. It is an archive of 2 years work by Doug Belshaw who now blogs at dougbelshaw.com...

The BBC reports that the scheme in Doncaster’s Hungerhill school to track pupils by RFID tags in their school uniforms has come under increasing scrutiny. After the furore that surrounded the government’s loss (including probably our family’s) child benefit details, there is concern that privacy is being violated. Hurray for public debate!
