Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a circuit board can

I can see this being used at theme parks to replace the paper strip you'd otherwise have to wear to show that you've paid for entry.

Or nightclubs that do the same thing.

Mm it especially talks about sensing, I don’t think I want the theme park to know my heart rate or other vital signs.

Could be useful for hospitals for example.

Well era of chip implants and complete death of privacy is coming. I guess at this point only religious people are against it unfortunately

[–] lauha@lemmy.one 14 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Are you religious or are you for this? I'm confused. Lot of tech savvy people seem to be against this

[–] GolfNovemberUniform@lemmy.ml -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm against it but I can see more and more people, tech savvy or not, being ok with it. It's scary (not in terms of religious things but in general)

[–] Dymonika@beehaw.org 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Who is for it who's tech-savvy (and is not a celebrity)? I can't think of a single person.

I mean, just look at other comments. Some people don't seem to mind it much

[–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah, one day in the future chips with net access are implanted in the newborns brain and wellcome to the the universal consciousness
