Re: Computer Chips Implemented into Skin
There are a lot of people who will be resistant to this sort of thing, because of their belief system, or a fear of Big Brother. It will however become very popular because many of us(Americans) want things as easy and as effortless as possible, and it will be a 21st century status symbol. It will create some schizms in our society based on economic status and/or ideology, but thats the case with every new piece of technology.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.Comment

Something like this would be unprecedented. Of course it'll be voluntary in the beginning but then it'll become the standard by which everything is done. Those who are resistant to it for some reason or another will be FORCED to have chips in them or else they'll starve, have no job, no food, NADA!
Oh and I love how everyone says it's so easy when you have the chips. Let's say you need a chip for banking. I'd like to see how easy it is when a criminal cuts off the person's arm so they can access the victim's money.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

So, imo, your post is a gross overdramatization regarding the impact of this technology on our culture. I'm pretty sure we won't see a situation of being lined up and forced to undergo modifications to our bodies in order to become some sort of cyborgs, though that part of your post was a nice touch in terms of fearmongering....Helen: Everyone's special, Dash.

Re: Computer Chips Implemented into Skin
Ok so I overdramatized to make a point.
I do have a question for you. Let's say that we're in a cashless society, how are people without the chips going to function? It won't be practical to have a paper currency when a vast majority have gone cashless?

But anyone who doesn't trust that technology could just have their chip on a card they carry with them. Problem solved!Comment

Well we'll see how things advance in the next couple decades or so. At least you allayed some fears on my part.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club
