Microchips are getting under the skin of thousands in Sweden

Thousands of people in Sweden are inserting tiny microchips under their skin — making their lives much easier as they no longer have to carry IDs, gym passes, and keycards to get into work....But it's not without data risks.

About 3,000 Swedes have inserted the tiny chips into their bodies over the past three years, the electronic tags are about the size of a grain of rice and are implanted in the back of the hand 'via a syringe'.

Libberton warns that by having a microchip implanted in your hand, you also give your data away.

"The real issue is data handling, which will be an issue later on with how data is stored... if the data is not secure, someone can get your information and once it's out there, it's hard to get back."

He also warns that some people could even be giving their data away without even realising it in the terms and conditions they sign.

Nevertheless, microchips have been hugely popular in Sweden, with some companies even holding so-called implant parties for their employees.

Anyd “ID” that can’t easily be replaced and can be easily digitally copied is extremely dangerous. This goes for using biometrics for purchases, you can’t change them. Once these digital-signatures are compromised you have no recourse. It’s not like a credit card that can just be shut down and a new one issued.

...hint hint Apple - same goes for your “purchase with your face” technology. DON’T DO IT!
