RFID: Banned In New Hampshire

Trade journal Logistics Today, citing reports by AIM Global and the American Electronics Association, say legislation currently pending in California and New Hampshire could have a sweeping and negative effect on the use of radio frequency identification.

Of particular interest to both AIM Global and AeA, the publication says, "is New Hampshire legislation that describes 'tracking devices' as everything from E-Z Pass transponders to library cards."

The legislation, if passed, would require that no item “to which a tracking device or devices have been affixed or implanted, shall be sold or offered for sale or provided to a consumer without a label containing a universally accepted symbol.” (New Hampshire House Bill 203-FN, Chapter 358-S-2 I).
