Compulsory within…twenty years? At the present rate of change that doesn’t seem unlikely.
I think it’d be nearer a decade, to be honest. What a bleak and depressing future people have to look forward to.
Kind of them to mention where it’s located, though, that’ll save a good deal of messy experimentation with a chain saw.
I have to say that I see nothing wrong with experimentation using a chain saw *per se* …
as long as I’m on the wielding end, of course.
Bah! You’re such a tease. I had the chain oiled and the cab was on its way and everything
I have one or two clients to whom I could direct you, if you’re armed and ready to go …
If it won’t be implanted it will be achieved through ubiquity. Throw enough RFID at people and enough will be trackable attached to clothes, things, devices, purchased goods, cardit cards etc all cross referencable to make the notion of a physical implant seem pointless.
I think I’d like to explore how to burn out such devices, I hear you can burn out video surveillance cameras (as well as your eyes) quite easily with an emitter taken from a microwave oven. I wonder if it would be possible to just kill these things with a guy, a battery and a small backpack walking about heavily polulated areas?

I’m sure – and I fervently hope I’m right – that people are checking this stuff out as we speak.
And if you leave the company – they sue you for stealing your chip?
