| From what ive been reading it seems these chips arent too safe at all and have been found to be completely hackable. That doesnt bode to well when all the banks start using them and we are forced to use them. |

A Cincinnati company is requiring any employee who works in its secure data center to be implanted with a microchip. Sounds like some of this company's bigwigs are a little reticent about getting their own implants though.... :?

Albrecht believes the VeriChip will be hard to sell when people learn of the security flaws, combined with a general squeamishness about implants.
"Obviously, nobody wants their employer coming at them with a giant hypodermic needle," she said. "But when people realize it takes a scalpel and surgery to remove the device if it gets hacked, they'll really think twice. An implant is disgusting enough going in, but getting it out again is a bloody mess."
