Tagged introduces us to the raging debate over the ubiquitous Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chip, touted as a tool with invaluable medical applications by its supporters and denounced as the death knell for civil liberties by privacy advocates. This playfully smart short doc lets the audience decide: Is it "hip to be chipped," as a proposed marketing slogan claimed, or could RFID implants accelerate a slide down the slippery slope from surveillance society to totalitarian nightmare?

Just like all other technologies, RFID WILL fall into the wrong hands and it will be used immorally and illegally. The chips will probably be so small at some point as to be virtually undetectable. I don't think we are ready for this technology to be used in Human Beings yet. Not while corrupt governments, cults, religions, and corporations exist. This is NOT an emotional issue. This is an issue of legality and morality.

1. cats are sentient. Don't be fooled by these people.
2. I can drop my cell phone and laptop. I would have to cut out a chip.
3. It should NOT be in my cloths after I buy them. I can shield my credit cards.
Just because you can already track me doesn't mean I should let you track me on the sly to dump more stupid spam at me.
The government CANNOT do this because it is search without a warrant. With a warrant - fine. (The Patriot act was illegal of course.)
