Wisconsin all set to enforce law baring forced RFID implants
Wisconsin is all set to enforce the law, which bars forcible implementation of RFID tags into humans this week. Governor James Doyle has approved the legislation last month. According to law, nobody will be permitted to force another to put a microchip implanted in his body. If anybody violated the law, would be liable to pay $ 10,000 each day until the chip is removed.
Wisconsin will become the one of first states to implement such kind of law. Some 19 states are also planning to introduce laws to limit the use of RFID technology because of data privacy and security concerns. By introducing such kind of legislations, one that Wisconsin did recently, would have broad implications for RFID product manufacturers, distributors and users.
