  Won't happen. Here's why. Crime pays. In the form of private security, corrections, etc..
  
  Of course all our corporate heroes can continue to rape, pillage, and plunder without cash. But elimination of street crime would be stepping on a lot of toes.....

  Criminals won't be saying, "Hand over your wallet..." They'll just pull out a huge knife 😂

  
  

  Seriously though, this seems more like cattle tracking to me and there's a bit of Revelation 13:17 creepiness to it all. The picture does show a right hand.
  

  Just sayin 🤔

  I had to look it up, but you're spot on.

  Dumb (and WRONG) reports put out by folks that don’t have a clue and companies peddling old technology and picked up by news agencies looking for ratings through sci-fi shock...
  
  This tech is very 2000.  No one need a chip in their hands for recognition.  Biometrics and facial recognition (which by the way works with ANY part of your body) are so good that there is ZERO need for chips and all your financial info is in the cloud.  Your face or even your body walking towards a vending machine is all we need to to charge you for that coke...

  Sounds like the project Bill Gates has been working on over seas.  Just think of the things they can put in that chip to track you and what you do.  Bad enough Alexa eavesdrops we do not need this inside of us

  Those 'smart TV's' also eavesdrop on you, too. And some of those 'smart' alarm systems do the same thing, as in the video can be accessed by LE agencies, both city, state, and Fed. Every government body seems to be eavesdropping on ya, and YOU'RE paying for the privilege.

  Have to disagree. Facial recognition can be easily defeated. Chipping is already being done for Fido and Fluffy as well as people - on volunteer basis. Yeah, it might be 2000 era  'sci-fi shock' and all but it's definitely coming as we inch ever closer to a cashless society. Plus, credit cards with magnetic swipes were developed way back in the 60s and we're still using them today nearly 60 years later. Even our DL's have magnetic swipes although both the CC and DL has been pretty much replaced by the chip. Never underestimate the governments thirst for control of the masses.

  Someone above mentioned the Book of Revelation. Theyre right. Too close for my comfort.

  Its all in the minutia of interpretation.
  
  Is a binary code the number of a man? Perhaps a subject best left alone on the board. But one of certain intrigue for those disposed towards biblical study.
