Chipping is all go. The All Seeing Eye is alive & well.
There might still be consumer resistance to getting part of a computer stuck in your arm.
HUMANS SCANNED LIKE GROCERIES
"When the technology is so powerful it seems wrong that it should be left to multi-nationals to decide how it should be controlled."
The news this week that the US government gave its approval for humans to be implanted with microchips so they can be scanned and read like groceries and animals is very Orwellian, to say the least. In "1984" Orwell said:
"Children will be taken from their parents at birth, as one takes eggs from a hen... Procreation will be an animal formality like the renewal of a ration card... Men are infinitely malleable...Proletarians are slaves. They are helpless, like the animals."
In some of their writings* the powers-that-be say that human beings are no different from cattle and they plan to treat us as such. As stories like the following attest, it's becoming increasingly obvious. ~ Jackie Jura
Security under the skin By Sean Coughlan, BBC News, Oct 15, 2004 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/3742684.stm
A US company has been given the green light to implant microchips in humans. It's intended to provide medical information ... but will it turn into a surveillance system? How would you like to have the equivalent of a barcode built into your arm? It would be convenient. A quick scan could save the need to show passports or ID cards. It would be handier than carrying cash or producing medical records. And a particularly clever barcode would let people find you if you were lost or abducted. Would it mean less hassle and more security? Or would it make you feel like a DVD tagged in the supermarket? Or like a criminal being monitored everywhere you went? These are the questions being raised by the emergence of microchips that can be implanted in people's arms - with the technology moving from geeky future-gazing to a mainstream proposition.
