RFID-tagged Lexmark printers

"Item-level RFID tagging devastates Lexmark's already poor consumer privacy track record. Lexmark and HP were both recently caught hiding a secret pattern of dots on people's printouts for tracking purposes.

(Note: Lexmark was originally a division of IBM, creators of the patented "person tracking unit." IBM's patent describes using spychips in people's clothes and personal belongings to track and monitor them in shopping malls, libraries, museums, sports arenas, elevators, and even restrooms.)
