    Wearing Big Brother?

    Benetton clothing to carry tracking transmitters

    Clothes sold at Benetton will soon contain microchip transmitters that allow the Italian retailer to track its garments from their point of manufacture to the moment they are sold in any of its shops.

    Benetton's introduction of "smart tag" tracking technology will be the largest example of a trend now emerging in the retail industry..........

          I always thought the colors of Benetton make you look like a clown but anyway. This seems to be mearly a theft prevention thing and they disable the chip on sale otherwise they would not sell a single piece in Europe due to very strict data security laws
          SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
