Cyborgs. Workers in Stockholm are allowing microchips to be injected into their hands. The chips are the size of a kernel of rice and control locked doors, financial transactions, and other stuff. But if people gather your information it's not like a phone that you can lose. It's always in your body.

I love new tech but this may even be over the top for me.
Thoughts?

I don't think I would like this. Your employer can keep up with your every move, at work, where you go or at home, and all your purchases with this. Not that you aren't being tracked anyway. One day when we were out shopping Google emailed my son wanting pictures of the store we were in.

I guess instead of stealing someones keys or charge card they would have to kill them and cut off their hand.

What malarkey! If anyone thinks that I will allow our government to put a chip or tattoo of my social on my arm or something, they have another thing coming. I don't want anyone to have that much knowledge as to my whereabouts, money issues, or friends. Big brother can just go butt a stump! I'm not doing it!

This is voluntary and I don't think any governments are involved. It is privately owned businesses wanting to do this.

I'm self-employed so this is not of concern to me.
