simply touching their credit card to a machine at a store, or you’ve done the same with a bus pass, you’ve seen an RFID tag in action. An RFID (Radio-Frequency IDentification) tag allows a card to be read by a computer from a short distance away. This is very convenient, but it also allows criminals to steal information about you. For instance, on the subway or the bus, someone standing next to you can use an RFID reader to access the data on that card. My project is about blocking an RFID reader, to protect my cards and passport.
