RFID personal firewall

If RFID-embedded documents will be the norm, something like this will probably be necessary. Will all of us have to be carrying a personal firewall in the future?

The RFID Guardian Project is a collaborative project focused upon providing security and privacy in Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems. The goals of our project are to:

* Investigate the security and privacy threats faced by RFID systems
* Design and implement real solutions against these threats
* Investigate the associated technological and legal issues

The namesake of our project is the RFID Guardian: a mobile battery-powered device that offers personal RFID security and privacy management. One the focuses of our project is to build an RFID Guardian prototype.
