A recent Capgemini study of European consumers found that more than half believe radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags are a privacy threat and say privacy protection legislation would make them more likely to purchase RFID tagged products. Nearly 75% of British respondents, and 59% of all respondents, feared the tags could be used to share their personal data with third parties or monitor them after they leave stores with the products, possibly for use in direct marketing.
