Ready to get chipped?

A snippet

 

For Graafstra himself, the chips are more than a novelty or a hacker hobby. Graafstra uses them to access his home near Seattle, to turn on his motorcycle, to open a safe in his house, even to authenticate into his phone, a Samsung Galaxy Nexus that’s capable of near-field communications. He had his first chip installed in 2005 by a doctor client of his IT services firm, and has since become one of a few vocal RFID body implant evangelists, chronicling his experiences with the chip on his website and in a book, RFID Toys.

Driving to work the other day I couldn't help but think of how much of Orwell's 1984 has come to fruition.

 And it isn't being forced.

The deception is so complete that only those who truly have their eyes open can see it.

On the one hand it would end the problem of lost keys.

On the other hand it's a bit too "Big Brother"-ish for my personal taste.

I never read 1984. I think perhaps I should.
