Saturday, May 11, 2002I know, I know. It’s supposed to help those who can’t talk for themselves, like the demented and the comatose, but still there’s something creepy about putting scannable information into a person’s body like this. The company also has plans to develop a chip that will use a GPS tracking system to locate lost people. The potential for abuse and misuse is phenomenal. It’s not hard to imagine chips like this being used to keep track of parolees, for example, or "deadbeat dads," or chips that include a person's criminal record or financial history as well as their medical history. It's just too Orwellian. posted by Sydney on 5/11/2002 08:26:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
