Gillette is one of the first eight companies to work with Wal-Mart on the initial RFID pilot several years ago.
There were many public outcry with websites and even a group calling themselves- CASPIAN (Consumers Against Supermarket Privacy Invasion and Numbering) was setup to boycott products that are RFID tagged.

With RFID, Wal-Mart and their suppliers would have actionable visibility for these fast moving consumer goods from manufacturer to the distribution center, to the retailer stock room, to the shelf on the sales floor of the store.
