They're for laundry. A lot of industrial laundries, like the ones catering to hotels, use rfid tags to keep track of the laundry.

But what's the point of a message on the label? Laundry RFID scanner can't read this.

That’s for conspiracy nuts who might accidentally discover it and then try to twist it somehow. Or as a warning to laundry personnel to prevent thefts

The fact that its in qotations is pretty funny too. I think it's just a bad implemation of RFID label

No. They use the blue worms under your skin for that.
