It sounds like a great technology until security concerns are mentioned. But since the companies that are pushing this technology have enough clout to hush everything up, we will of course end up with it being embedded into most devices until the problem becomes too serious to ignore.

Until then, New York City has already begun embedding licenses with RFID. The radio frequency identification chip in the EDL will be able to be scanned by authorities to identify citizens entering the state from Canada, Mexico, or the Caribbean. Intercontinental travelers will still need to produce a passport to enter the country. The RFID licences cost an extra $30, bringing the total price to $80.

Authorities say no personal information will be stored or transmitted by the chip, only an identification number. Those who don't necessarily trust the powers that be can opt for a standard license
