Homeland Security Unveils RFID Component to US-VISIT

"The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is taking the controversial US-VISIT program high-tech. Several Canada-U.S. land ports will use RFID technology to monitor visitors who want to enter the U.S. The technology is part of US-VISIT, a billion-dollar anti-terrorism initiative launched in December. As part of the program, U.S.-bound landed immigrants, or any other non-Canadian citizen who requires a temporary VISA to enter the U.S. for business or pleasure, would have to undergo biometric digital photographs when they cross the border, as well as finger scans at a secondary inspection centre on subsequent visits."
