ROFL. Er, I can think of one real life scenario backed up by none other than this same article to disprove the first part of the above sentence: person with implantable microchip admitted to hospital with a HACKED chip resulting in misdiagnosis and eventual death. Perhaps it should have read “medical advantages of these implantable microchips CAN be denied”. On the subject of denial, here’s another expected real life scenario: HMO “denies” coverage for services rendered due to HACKED chip. You think you have problems now with possible denial of coverage? Well then just wait until some 14 year old cracks into the chip embedded in your central nervous system. I can also imagine a brand new industry profiting millions or more for the sole purpose of “protecting” customers’ implantable chips with weekly updates and patches. There’s not a single computer cpu or software package to be built YET that does not contain errata…most of the time (even TODAY) this shit is covered up by software emulation. To think that a bunch of marketing gurus, electrical and mechanical engineers, and eventual software programmers are all going to have a hand in creating that chip, I’d say “thanks but no thanks…I’ll take my chances without it.”

Right hand or forehead?

now come on….. this is not funny….
what are we… robots…. i’m a free thinking human being….
i don’t need a chip in my brain or my hand…..

computers and chips don’t mix….
have you heard of Hacker’s… have you heard of viruses….
to trust a computer, that has been programed by man, is not a smart option… these things can break and crash and are not perfect, because we are not perfect…..
