I am interested if you would do this to authenticate your computer, etc.

No thanks. I don't want to be tagged like a dog. Asking for RFID tags under the skin of night club visitors is a very good way of starting an inverted MENSA society. If you accept - you are qualified.

Well, Channel 9 crew? Now that this several month story can be updated (from MSNBC, natch), how is the reaction to this story at MS Research and the rest of MS? Have you been expecting this ruling, and are you ready for it? This could make a nice video interview in a few months!

Paralysed man sends e-mail by thought

An pill-sized brain chip has allowed a quadriplegic man to check e-mail and play computer games using his thoughts. The device can tap into a hundred neurons at a time, and is the most sophisticated such implant tested in humans so far.

Many paralysed people control computers with their eyes or tongue. But muscle function limits these techniques, and they require a lot of training. For over a decade researchers have been trying to find a way to tap directly into thoughts.

And also;

A US company this week got the green light to implant tiny chips in people's arms in order to instantly access their medical records. The move highlights how this unassuming technology is now sweeping into everyday use.

The VeriChip, made by Applied Digital Solutions in Delray Beach, Florida, is the size of grain of rice and is injected under a patient's skin. On 13 October, the company announced that they had received approval from the Food and Drug Administration to market them in the United States.

Every coin has 2 sides. As technology progresses the individual privacy will be lost. Some people will get adjusted with new technology, some will not. As I said in my first line, some people may use this technological advances for personel benifits. And time will tell how much greedy humans can be but such things are going to happen very rapidly. So I request such technology developers to develop side by side some techmology to prevent misuse of wonderful ideas.
