RFID chips are pretty s**t and the batteries don't last long. Won't catch on. Imagine the fun though with everyone setting the alarms off leaving Primark though An inherent problem with RFID chips - They're remarkably easy to replicate (essentially they're barcodes). Except Barcodes aren't automatically scanned when they come within 5-10 foot of a barcode reader (so you can do a lot more replication).

I support this development as it moves us closer to the ideal of a subservient genetically modified underclass providing cheap and effective labour for the ruling class. Depressingly sad but oh so true.

Won't catch on. yes like the internet The internet had a special advantage that drove its popularity and success, the capacity to view p***.graphy easily and it allowed people to share pictures of cats with captions. Never underestimate how power the 'porn' factor is in the rise of a new technology. I suspect that once phone sex started to be a thing, the rush was on to develop hands free, mobile and portable phones. Everything else in regards to the internet came later. As soon as you could view pictures on a mobile the sales went astronomical. Same applies to tablets. If they didn't allow people to carry p*** around with them, they'd never have caught on. before i had ever read this website i would have disagreed with you on that ,but spending far to much of my valued time on here i think you are correct

In the early days of all of these great technological breakthroughs, it was p***.graphy that effectively kept it alive. Turns out more people would buy more pictures of naked women than commission photos of their family. Ironically virtual reality technology pioneers ensured this wouldn't be the case by way of restricting patents from this market. 20 years on, we're still trying to make a VR headset effective. I think this says a lot about human industry, humanity is driven by its desire to see naked women (for the most part) and ejaculate. There's a reason why classical statues are usually sans clothes. * If we could incorporate 'w***ing' into space travel, we'd all be living on the moon by now.

This idea seems a bit OTT. Whatever happened to fingerprint/eye recognition technology? Implanting a chip seems a step too far, like the organisation wants to 'own you'. That said I can see the merits maybe for army personnel maybe to pinpoint their position in combat but there is no need for it otherwise unless the company want to snoop on what each individual is up to whilst working for them.

i love reading up on conspiracy theories, some seems plausible, some seem ridiculous - none can be discredited, they are all possible in my mind. A friend of mine has a birth control chip in her arm, people have pacemakers, artificial knees and bone. People area changing the appearance of their sex, tattoos are becoming 3d, people are creating animalistic features on their bodies. So there is a spectrum of from good to bad of what we can do to our bodies. I personally do not like the idea of a chip in our bodies. Why? well, where will it stop? Soon people will be able to stay in bed, in a vegetive state and be at the 'office' - what effect will this have for society.

I predicted years ago that in the not-too-distant future all babies would be chipped at birth. This would be done under the guise of security and helpfulness (medical records etc) but will in fact be a way of the state keeping tabs on the entire population, all the time. Now it's coming true.

I worked on Canary Wharf and supervised the swipecards used to gain entry into more sensitive areas. Whenever a company wanted to sack someone they asked for a print out of their swipecard records and if there was anything untoward would use this as part of the excuse to sack them. We always knew when someone would get the sack due to this. A friend of mine told someone she was going to get the sack in this way and he was sacked for telling her. I had to take him 'off site'. Not a good development for workers.
