abstract = {Firms increasingly use ubiquitous technology in marketing to interact with consumers, locate and identify them, push promotions, and gather detailed purchasing data. This increased connectivity through ubiquitous technology creates a new bond between consumers and firms. Although most consumers willingly accept this connection, some perceive it as unwanted proximity, qualify it as intrusive, and consequently refuse to engage with firms. This research is intended to support firms that are interested in implementing ubiquitous technology in their marketing activities. We propose a new consumer response model, confirm a good fit with the data, and its stability in the presence of socio-demographic moderators using structural equations and multi-group analyses. This model is a tool that accurately captures the optimal settings of ubiquitous technology use and enables firms to efficiently predict consumer reactions to this technology, handily design implementation, and provide an improved customer experience. © 2019 Elsevier Inc.},

abstract = {Academic research into RFID technology has largely neglected ethics. What scarce research was being performed has now dwindled despite having some consumers continue to express their ethical concerns. This article aims at reducing this apparent void by exploring the antecedents that cause the public to react when consumers are targeted by RFID technology. Through the analysis of 11 real RFID implementations used to target consumers, our research indicates that several factors can influence consumer response through the distinct nature of the technology, namely, (1) Customization of communications, (2) Imposition of tag use, (3) Segmentation and targeting, (4) Modified role of the sales representative, (5) Physical distance between the consumer and the tag, and (6) Security of transactions. The article then proposes a construct to determine the risk of raising consumer ethical concerns. The construct of “Connective Proximity” and its three components (physical proximity, exposure time, and information proximity) are defined. Our research highlights the need for further studies on the ethical considerations of tagging humans and specifically tracking consumers when performing marketing activities with RFID technology. Our article aims at invigorating research on this topic, which has a lot to contribute to both society and corporations. © 2016, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.},
