Invisible processors running our lives. Works for me, if it works.
They are small enough and cheap enough to put just about anywhere, which I don't like. A way of keeping tabs on us all.
DON'T Believe this Spin from Malaysia
It was announced as the smallest microchip - ONLY in Malaysia perhaps as in JAPAN, Hitachi's mu-chips (0.4mm x 0.4mm) are already in production and they had been used to prevent ticket forgery at last year's Aichi international technology exposition and they have developed even smaller ones (0.05mm x 0.05mm) POWDER TAGS (see pic) - 60 times smaller but NOT in production yet www.powerpresent.blogspot.com/2007/02/malaysia-launched-rfic-microchip-07mm-x.html

Big brother is going to be very bored then.
Why worry about governments, etc, keeping tabs on you? It is only a problem if you are doing something illegal.
Unless you don't use the internet, cell phone, gps or credit card, there are plenty of traces for big brother to watch already
No need to worry, but it's a good reason to think about who you vote for.

I would like to put one of them buggas in my TV remote so I can find it.
Need some in my keys and sunglasses also.

If they watched everything it would take 1 person for every person And one person for every dozen of those watchers and someone to watch the watchers and supervisors and... Do you understand where I am going? It could not be done. I don't worry about that type of BIG BROTHER scenario. I worry more about society as a whole not using the brains they were born with and relying wholly on what they are told by the media and the Internet. I love both forms of entertainment but if we could learn to really think as a society we are doomed to regress in a lot of areas while we will have huge technological advances that eventually most people will not even understand.
Uhh sorry about hijacking the thread I just started and it grew.
