Because it's not a "chip" in the way you normally think of "chips." It's passive, so it only works if you bounce the right radio frequency off the thing. Ya know those anti-shoplifting deals in drug stores where you pass between two gates? That's a form of RFID. Those little stickers with the metal maze thing is RFID that disrupts the radio signal and triggers and alarm.

Telling consumers where the chip is defeats the purpose of their use as an anti-shop lifting device. What's more, in the future (or present) you may not be able to remove them because they'll be "printed" on the product.

I take it your answer is still an emphatic "NO." A consumer may not remove or disable the chip once an item is purchased by the consumer. Why?
