This is a very interesting company. They have designed a RFID chip that can be imbedded into the body. About the size of a grain of rice, the device is typically implanted above the triceps area of an individual’s right arm. It responds to a remote reader which can correlate the user to information stored on a database for identity verification and is being marketed to medical institutions.
The US government is looking at similar tech to be incorporated in compulsory ID cards to be carried by all US citizens, looking at the UK's example in particular.
I'm not a religous person and some on here even call me paranoid but religous leaders in the US have come out strongly against this tech speculating that it might be the fulfillment of a prophecy from Christianity, where each person is marked for an identification, by an evil government. This is one of the most famous passages of The Book of Revelation, a section of the Bible thought by some to be prophecies of the end times.
"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. The number is six-hundred and sixty-six."
According to a recent ABC News article, some of the people being implanted with this chip do, in fact get it in their right hand. Spooky or what? lol lol.
