A. A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag is a tiny computer chip which can be attached to a product so that it can be tracked. The tags have been used in shops for several years) but scientists are now thinking of using them to track humans. B. Staff at the attorney general's office in Mexico City have already had the chips implanted under the skin of their upper arms. A scanner reads the codes contained in. the chips and allows the employees to enter secure buildings. This means, of course, that people without chips can't enter the building. C. Scientists have suggested other advantages of carrying the tags. The survivors of earthquakes could be located more easily and worried parents could find their missing children by tracking their chip. Technical enthusiast Amal Graafstra has already got implants in his hands which he uses to unlock doors and to start his car. D. However, not everybody supports this new technology. Civil liberties groups accept its use to track pet cats and dogs, but they believe that tracking humans in this way could be dangerous. They are worried that governments might use the chips to track people's movements without their knowledge, and they are also concerned about the issue of security. It is possible that criminals could read the chips from a distance and access personal information illegally. E. This opposition is causing problems for developers. It seems that until they address these security issues, many of their projects may remain in the laboratory. IV.
