I am sure they are thinking about...how about GPS tracking implants for the two women they want out of jail?

Who makes an implantable tracking device?
To: johnnycap
Bad idea. If the terrorist know we having this they will kill them just to get their hands on it. Beside would you subject yourself to being implanted witha tracking device, talk about big brother

Well, the most obvious answer: they don't work.

I heard the same question on the radio today and the host said that the smallest tracking device is about the size of a pack of cigarettes. Too big to implant.

because it would make every military person have a built in homing signal for the enemy to use.

The victim then becomes an instant kill instead of a bargaining chip.

Privacy issues I am sure, when it boils down to it.

Why stop at Iraq? Why not just mark us all?
I say that in jest, but that's the slippery slope that this will lead to. Is it worth it?

Leaving aside the technical challenges (keeping an implant powered, for one thing), but once known, the enemy would have no compunction about "unimplanting" them, no matter where they were in the body.

re: "Too big to implant"
Maybe there IS some benefit to augmentation mamoplasty, aside from the obvious.

Yes, a tracking implant. I raised this question a couple days ago. When it occured to me a couple months ago I figured it was such an obvious idea that the military had surely thought of it a couple years ago.
