[quote:SilverPatriot:MV8yMTA2MDk5XzM1NDk4MzcwXzYxM0IwMEQ3] Perhaps the student should leave the damned id in their locker after school or place it in an RFID proof container after school there are options to defeat these “butt sniffing” freedom killers. Examples there are many more: RFID PROTECTION http://www.rfidprotection.net/ RFID Wallet vs RFID Protection Sleeves http://www.theftdefender.com/ [/quote]

Student Suspended for Refusing to Wear RFID Tracker Loses Lawsuit
A Texas high school student who claimed her student identification was the “Mark of the Beast” because it was implanted with a radio-frequency identification chip has lost her federal court bid Tuesday challenging her suspension for refusing to wear the card around her neck.
Radio-frequency identification devices are a daily part of the electronic age — found in passports, and library and payment cards. Eventually they’re expected to replace bar-code labels on consumer goods. Now schools across the nation are slowly adopting them as well.
Northside Independent School District in San Antonio began issuing the RFID-chip-laden student-body cards when the semester began in the fall. The ID badge has a bar code associated with a student’s Social Security number, and the RFID chip monitors pupils’ movements on campus, from when they arrive until when they leave.
