RFID System Sales

What is all this talk about privacy !
A read only RFID tag just has a random 64bit number in it, the retail shop computer has a database that it uses to lookup that number against a description of the goods.
To expect that a consumer can be tracked when they enter a differnt store is utter rubbish as the number means nothing to the second store as it has never seen the item before, plus the fact that there are many different frequencies and protocols out there.
All this tracking and privacy nonsense is being peddled by people who do not understand what they are talking about !
We all have a Credit Card that contains significant financial information on it and cheerfully hand it over to many people in a day, so much for privacy.
