Korean Gov’t Sets Privacy Protection Guidelines for RFID

"The Ministry of Information and Communication of Korea is working on Privacy Protection Guidelines for RFID to prepare for full-fledged use of RFID. The guidelines ban storing personal information on RFID tag against related laws or without clear statement of consent from the person in question. Furthermore, RFID-tagged products should be indicated with proper mark accompanied by methods of removing the tag. To install a RFID reader, you have to inform shoppers or customers of the fact."
