But this particular RFID has some sort of encryption-something, that means that other companies can't make them.

I don't like it, but since I can still use other brands without the convenience of RFID tags, it's not a deal-breaker.

Ah right I didn't know. I thought they used plain-jane ASCII tags with some known documented format.

That sucks.

I loaded third-party filament onto my spools with RFID several times and it worked fine.

I have since started printing almost exclusively from a filament dryer (AMS lite works fine this way), so it doesn't matter anymore.
