Comment on "Keeping Bogus Drugs Out of the Medicine Cabinet"

The author states: "Utilizing RFID by tagging bottles and authenticating shipments throughout the distribution chain would bring a level of security, efficiency and economic feasibility unmatched by any other technology currently being tested."

IMHO, this statement is a gross misrepresentation of current reality. It's a perfect example of hype. I discuss the issue further on my blog:

I don't sell software or hardware, so I have no reason to hype RFID.
