I dunno if I'm gonna change my tires but I imagine if I didn't want to be tracked it would be not too difficult to smash/electrocute/burn the tags into nonfunctionality.


Its extremely unfortunate that if you were to use an arc welder near your tires, the RFID tag may no longer work properly.


There's a good chance the tire will no longer work properly, too!


How do you do that if they're embedded in the rubber material?
