A bump in the RFID road

According to several reports (link), it has been proven that viruses can be spread from tampered chips back into the database collecting the information and back out into other chips - similar to the method of viruses spreading through the internet today.

In all the excitement about RFID, I had not thought about the effect of viruses, or the method by which they would spread in this world. While this testing was done in a University setting and not meant to cause harm, obviously free market virus-making will ensue. It's much earlier in the RFID adoption than it was in the internet adoption for viruses. However, it's getting very mature in the adoption of viruses.

It will be interesting which RFID makers will present virus-protected chips first.
