	Abstract:	The goal of this contribution is limited and ambitious at the same time. It involves the analysis of how a particular technology, Radio Frequency Identifiers (RFID), has developed and how it has initially been regulated outside of the law. Then, we shall attempt to show how the law has sought or seeks, with more or less success in certain contexts, to control this technology.
	Keywords:	radio frequency identification; RFID; data protection; personal data; privacy; security; ICT; information technology; communications technology; law; regulation.
