No, I don't need chipped. If I go missing for a few days, I'll find my way home eventually, and I'm not that likely to be hit while chasing cars. Not saying it couldn't happen, but I'm pretty cautious about that sort of thing. I only chase those smart cars, those are too small to hurt me too much.

Nope. No way. Not for any amount of money. It might be just for the vending machines or building security today, but what will they program it for tomorrow?

Hopefully no one here works for this company!! At least it sounds like it's voluntary, for now anyway.

But would you agree if this were offered at your company?
We're probably all going to be buying everything like that within the next 10 years.

Employees with microchips implanted. I think Apple predicted the workforce future with their 1984 ad.

Spice up the question a bit. Suppose the microchip enhances your sexual drive. A sort of digital viagra. Then, would you want it?

What happens when one of these gets infected? Who is liable?
