I'm actually fine with something like this. If my company has something like this, I'd be one of the firsts to volunteer.

Don't hate OK?

I think children should have this done. To know where they are at all time and if something (God forbids) bad happens like they disappear, you could find them.
Maybe get it done at the age where they are in preschool and then take it out after college. Kids do end up missing while in college. Although my deceased father would ay 'no just leave it in till they get married. haha

If this become a thing, pedophiles and kidnappers will just dig the thing out. No. You will not "be able to find" a missing child unless they've just wandered off.

Plus any time you stick something in your body there are lots of other issues, such as allergic reactions and infections and scarring, and the super-duper-creepy likelihood that the pedophiles and kidnappers are ALSO tracking your child. We can't even keep hackers out of our e-mail.

True, but then the company wouldn't get all the publicity.
Employees are forced to consider whether the boss will notice who "volunteers" for the big company program and who doesn't, and what effect it will have on their careers.

"The technology is similar to mobile pay services like Apple Pay and Google Wallet"

Good, then I'll use Apple Pay and Google Wallet.

Oh hells no.

I can't believe that the people at this company are okay with this. Considering the hazards I found on an online site about microchipping pets, I certainly would not want to embed something like this in my flesh.

Will it interfere with MRIs? Do you have to have it surgically removed when you quit your job, or do they just deactivate it and when you get a new job, you get another chip near the original one? So if you change jobs a lot, you just have all these lumps all over your hands and arms?
