apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

What do these do? How can an employer compel someone to have one put in? That's all kinds of crazy.

They track your movements if you're within a certain (short) range of a sensor. Businesses already put them on name badges.

There's currently no sensible reason to implant them at a workplace that doesn't have ultra-serious security issues, as your employer's equipment wouldn't track you when you're off company grounds (the range really is short) and a good badge system takes care of your movements when you're at work.

You can NOT be serious!!!

I don't see the need for the skin implant either, but RFID on a badge seems reasonable enough.

Seems like these implants are kind of permanent...last I heard there were no 'lifetime jobs' out there.

If an employer ever suggested such a thing I'd tell them to go walk the f'ing plank & I'd help push them off rfid & all;)
