Here’s your RFID Tag. Have a Nice Flight!

Soon enough, everyone at the airport could have a little tag that goes everywhere they do. The tags, which are about the size of a microchip, would track every passenger inside an airport, from the time they check in until they board their plane. They would be used to flag passengers who are considered suspicious.

When combined with x-ray sensors and a number of other new gadgets, these tags could be used to track drug dealers and terrorists, and prevent them from boarding aircraft with illegal or dangerous cargo.

What do you think? Are you willing to be tracked to this degree in an airport situation in exchange for some extra security? Or does the idea of airport personnel knowing every time you go to the bathroom during a long layover creep you out?
