Re: RFID tags instead of pictures.
No, I'm not a RFID shill. But try to lose the printed ticket to you by the machine at the gate (a barcode) as you entered the parking lot, and see how much hassle you got.
Did you pay for parking, by handing it over to PL cashier? Did you hand it over to the Walmart cashier so it is not charged for 20 minutes, as the alloted time to leave even the most complex parking lot? Tough tits if you lost it.
Yes, the privacy of the thing can be abused to hell and back, as just a portable RFID reader cranked up to 1000 Watts and 20dB can tell you. But it beats the nagging of getting barcodes printed on thermal paper handed to you. Practical it is. Specially when it rains/heatwaves.
