Cool Firm Emplants ID Chips In Employees

Enables local worker's to pass security checkpoints...

Cincinnati Enquirer
February 14, 2006
By Cliff Peale Staff Writer

A small Walnut Hills operator of security cameras has reignited the international debate over microchips and privacy by implanting the chips into at least two employees.
Chief executive officer Sean Darks of CityWatch.com said a doctor implanted the chip-about the size of a grain of rice-in his forearm several months ago and in the arm of another employee.
Darks said the implantation was voluntary and allows the employee to pass through security readers at the companys data center without holding up a key chain or ID card.
A radio frequency from the reader activates the VeriChip, which then emits a signal transmitting an ID number.
Darks said it also could prove useful to access medical information if the employee could not provide it.
"Theres a few uses for them, but none of them are 'Big Brother'," Darks said Monday. "Its just an added level of security."
Privacy advocates, who have protested the use of so called "smart tags" in consumer products, which could be used to track individual consumer's shopping habits,say the CityWatch.com program sets the stage for bigger problems.
"This is the first time an employer has actually linked taking a VeriChip with a paycheck," said Katherine Albrecht, a privacy advocate who founded a group called Consumers Against Supermarket Privacy Invasion and Numbering.
"You have the potential for a surveillance society,' she said.
The CityWatch.com program now becomes part of the debate on smart tags, often called "RFID" for the radio frequency technology they use.
Big companies-including Cincinnati based Proctor and Gamble Co.-are developing technology to put the tags on pallets, and eventually on individual items.
They argue that it can cut supply chain costs and help reduce product shortages on store shelves.
Microchips also are being used to identify dogs and cats when they are lost. The chip is embedded in a flap of the skin, usually behind a pets head.
The European Union, Japan, Australia and New Zealand requires all pets being brought into their countries be implanted with microchips for identification.
Founded by Darks four years ago, CityWatch.com provides cameras used to spot crimes in about a half a dozen cities, including Cincinnati.
It allows those municipalities to view the cameras online, Darks said.
That makes security of the companies product critical, he said.
He said a doctor implanted the chip, which took only a few seconds and was not painful.
"It was like getting a flu shot," he said.
Darks said an employee leaving his company could easily have the chip removed.
"Just take the chip out," he said.
"The joke here is, we make them leave their arm."

Just goes to show that there is always some idiot willing to volunteer for anything. I just know that I would be jumping at the chance to have a device put into my arm that would potentially allow my employer to track my every movement.

Of course if it saves you the heavy lifting and brain power that it takes to hold up an ID card or a key chain then I can see why they couldn't wait.

Cool A litttle investigation ....

goes a long way. Once implanted, they can trace you anytime you're within range of the receiver's. In the bathroom, in the car, in the bank, in your lover's bed.... ...buying drug's.

And, anything, I do believe, which transmit's an electromagnetic field, can cause tumer's. Cancer.

The only thing I want embedded in me is the directions to the closest herb patch baby, thank you very much.....

Scanning an ID tag is just too big a burden these days I guess...

Where's the on/off switch? These people let their employers watch them even after they are off the clock? And why not just bend over so they can insert a different object into your ass?
