Never lose your document anymore. The clever idea is just to embed RFID staples so that lost documents can radio their location to a tracking device.
Implications - Since the fast paced changes in technology has allowed for both the size and price of RFID tags to decrease, Swingline has come up with a nifty way to make sure your papers never go missing. This could also easily turn into the quickest way to embed tracking devices on other people, that is, if you're a spy. It would be so simple, as your walking by distract them so you can staple their clothing and you will be able to keep track of them where ever they go.
