SB 30: The Identity Information Protection Act of 2007
Page Media
Although the technology has been around since World War II, state and local governments have recently begun incorporating Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) devices into identification documents like driver's licenses and passports. Citizens are compelled to carry these RFID-enabled devices, which broadcast their personal information and often lack meaningful privacy and security protections. As a result, government is forcing citizens to carry RFID-enabled devices that compromise their safety. SB 30 responds to this problem by requiring privacy and security safeguards on RFID-enabled, government-issued identification documents
