City of Parthenope

This is a project - reported by the BBC world service and in italian http://comunedipartenope.it is a "community of virtue" based in Naples ( Parthenope was a greek settlement where naples now stands). People sign up to a code of ethics http://comunedipartenope.it/content/codice-etico (in italian). From the RFID aspect what is interesting is that they are using RFID to identify people who sign up to this, so that they can be acknowledged in shops etc. I'm not sure what the enforcement policy is...
