How about anti-static bags? When my local automated auto-toll system was 
caught reading toll tags outside of bridge toll booths, outside of their 
stated privacy and usage policy...

(Well, "caught" doesn't quite apply when they put out a press release 
outlining what they were doing...)

They sent out those silver anti-static bags like computer components come 
in, with a ziploc opening. When I put my tag in the bag, it doesn't 
register.

I have an RFID wallet somewhere, will think about using it when I upgrade my 
drivers license to Real ID.


.... What context would look right?
