The Register reports that RFID tags can be infected by virii:

Dutch researchers have warned that RFID tags – small microchips, which can be used to tag products or animals - can be infected with computer viruses.

A group under the guidance of Andrew Tanenbaum at the Amsterdam Free University made the world’s RFID “malware” publicly available. “We hope to convince the experts that the problem is serious and better be dealt with,” the Dutch researchers say.

Please spread the word: governments are still convinced that all this shit is safe, for fucks’ sake!
