RFID chip. It’s inventory control. It allows the tracking of the chip from production through shipping. It would probably transmit its location if it were activated. Take it out and toss it.

Don’t toss it. Tape it to an outbound truck

That’s a passive RFID chip. No power supply, works on induction power from the reader (in this case a phone), has a *maximum* range when power is supplied from a reader of about 15 meters. In the typical noisy American radio atmosphere it can’t be ‘seen’ at more than maybe 5 meters.

So, no, it can’t do anything unless it’s queried by a reader device, which supplies power via radio. And they have to be very close to you to do it.
