The new standard makes it possible to stream data from sensors married to passive tags, by allocating a frequency channel to each device. When radio waves reaches a tag, the device wakes up and broadcasts the basic info it contains and then negotiates a clear channel on which to stream data.

People have already been trained to carry surveillance devices in their pockets, all they need to do is add one more sensor. I'm sure grocery stores will find them extra helpful.
