A UK firm has developed e-Plates, license plates with embedded long-range RFID tags that they hope will be adopted by the UK government’s Ministry of Transport. The system, of course, would allow speed checking sensors and other mechanisms to identify which cars were traveling at what speeds — up to 200mph from up to 300 feet away. The signal is encrypted in an effort to discourage spoofing, and the e-Plate is even designed to shatter if removed. RFIDNews first mentioned this a few days now, but we’ve given it just enough time to steep properly, bringing out the raving comments from privacy nuts and flippant disregard from capitulating society drones. Pick your polemic at random and get fighting!
