Chipping

Would those of you that consider themselves bitches, be willing to be microchipped? I’m not coming from a controlling mindset, more of a thought that just popped into my head
 
If you grew up watching soap operas, you know some time in life you're going to get amnesia and have some very confusing adventures in the next town over where nobody can tell you who you are.
 
Make it something useful at least, like waving your hand over a payment terminal like a Jedi. Having a chip with a random number in your back is not fun.

On the Sparkfun YouTube channel a guy actually does that.
 
I don't know if my dark humor is going too far, but I find it funny to imagine that someone is kidnapped, a video is recorded requesting a ransom, and within less of a minute of uploading it the authorities arrive at the scene destroying everything in their path thanks to a tracker that the kidnapped person has with them.

It does not work like that.
Trackers need a power source to transmit. You would need to have a battery and an antenna inside of you - which basically is a conductive Faraday cage making sending signal out fairly difficult. And then you would need a network of receivers to triangulate the signal.
Typical chips are about 1cm and few mm thick. You can not fit a decent battery in there. They are powered by the magnetic field of the RFID reader and on their own, they are passive.
The reader needs to get within a few cm of the chip to even transmit enough power to it to get a few bytes of response back.
 
I used to want one, if my dogs have one, then I want one too, because I am a dog, part and leader of my pack. My vet said he would put one in my hand, but he couldn't find one in the office that wasn't registered.
 
Its the same like with wearing collars...why not. But animals have more loose skin dunno how good that works on a human.
