RFID tags track kids in Texas school district

RFID tags track kids in Texas school district

The world was a whole lot safer in the past, where parents allowed their kids to roam around freely in the neighborhood without worrying about some random or ill feeling stranger bundle their kid in the trunk of a vehicle for a ransom. Things are much different and changed these days, and parents do play a role in being extra careful with their progeny. The Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas, has enlisted the help of RFID tags in order to track kids via a digital leash, knowing where little Johnny or Jane is at all times. Is this the subtle beginning of a police state, or is it done in the name of safety.
