You walk into a grocery store and pick up eggs. No smartphone? No problem. You swipe your hand across a reader, and the amount is deducted from your bank account.
If that sounds far-fetched, you obviously haven’t been to Sweden recently, where thousands of people have reportedly had chips implanted in their bodies.
A company called Biohax has already “installed” around 4,000 chips in customers, inserted just below the thumb. They can use the implant to open secure doors, pay for tickets, and share emergency information with medical personnel. The chip is about the size of a Tylenol pill, and the procedure -- which costs $180 -- is similar to getting a tetanus shot.
"The chip implant is a secure way of ensuring that a person's digital identity is linked to their physical identity. It enables access management in a way that protects individual self-sovereignty and allows users to control the privacy of their online activity,” Dr. Stewart Southey, the Chief Medical Officer at Biohax International, told Fox News.
Another doctor agrees that getting “chipped” is practical and even advantageous. As far back as 2014, experts have outlined a number of benefits, some medical and some consumer-based.
“From a medical perspective, in the ER we have patients come in every day who are confused or comatose and we cannot get any medical history from them,” says Dr. Larry Burchett, a medical expert and author who runs DoctorLarry.com. “If we had access to that info because they have a chip in their skin, that could be lifesaving.”

“We implant many things now -- insulin pumps, pain pumps, birth control -- under the skin,” he adds. “There are risks of infection, but they are low. I don't think those risks are a big deal.”

This article reminds me of this video about China, and how they are using technology to monitor everyone.

It sounds so convenient. What could go wrong?

Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.
No
Hell No
No.
my pastor warned of this exact thing in the early 90’s. Mark of the Beast he called it:
Revelation 13:16-17 King James Version (KJV)
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
I will never knowingly take a chip just because of it’s monitoring capabilities, but as to the ‘mark of the beast’ my opinion is—not yet.
Yes, I believe that the chip will be used in the coming Tribulation (I realize that some believe this is fantasy, so you’ll just have to wait and see that I’m right), but it is not yet the dreaded ‘mark.’
There are some prerequisites to it’s being the ‘mark.’
“And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb” (Revelation 14:9-10).
What is missing? The one accepting the mark must knowingly be worshipping the beast AND his image. Men are not yet in any position to worship something that is not yet on the scene.
Notice that the KJB says “in” the forehead and “in” the hand while the modern translations use “on”. The ‘in’ is important because it fits with the idea of a chip implant whereas ‘on’ could be a tattoo. I’ve yet to hear of a tattoo that can operate an ATM machine.
Yeah…NO!

Perhaps if they were chocolate, and in a cookie.
I don’t even carry a cell phone and pay everything with cash.
I do have my dog chipped.
EVERY immigrant who enters the US should have a transponder-type RFID chip implanted, if only to keep track of them as they disperse into the general population to the point they either overstay their visa, or they become involved in a crime of some sort, either as perpetrator or victim, and may thus be readily identified.
Just the thought of having a chip implanted should keep a LOT of would-be bad guys from ever entering this country.
Watch the ACLU types go overboard in condemning this “invasion of privacy”. There is NO presumption of privacy for wrongdoers. Don’t do wrong, and you can stay private.
Facial recognition software, becoming a standard practice in many venues, is “non-invasive” but the databases may be rather incomplete as of yet.
I can see a time coming when in order to, say, shop at Walmart, or be treated in a hospital, you MUST be chipped. There’s a history of forcing people to do things they don’t want to do. Practically no Germans wanted to give up the Deutsche Mark. Germany passed a law that on x date the Deutsche Mark would no longer be valid currency. And, then there’s the law versus the reality of how things work. It was illegal to use the Social Security number for identification. Yet, all through public school and college, that was my student number. So, it doesn’t matter what laws may be in place to protect Americans. They will be circumvented. (HIPAA was intended to prevent insurance companies from sharing information about patients. It ended up doing the opposite. If you want insurance you MUST sign that they can share everything.)
F NO.
I implanted myself with a chip today.
Actully I implanted a whole bag of chips in myself today.
They were delicious.
Wait...implanted or ingested.
Doesn’t matter, I’m happy.
Libs love control.
