Is it just me or do people not think about the security problems with
things like this? If just anybody w/ a scanner up to four feet away
can read my info that could be dangerous. I would hope there's some
kind of strong authentication of access to this data. I would think
that a single implanted chip couldn't store the data and be able to
authenticate authority properly. I find that scary.
