  Next time you're in Barcelona, stop by the Baja Beach Club and be one of the first kids on your block to be urlLink implanted with a RFID chip! Get an early glimpse at what awaits all of us at some point in the future, more than likely under the guise of "safety" and fighting terrorism. "the VeriChip is a technology consisting of the implantation of a digital chip under the skin...
The placement of this sub dermal chip is done with a syringe. Does this implantation method cause any troubles or side effects? "The chip is made of glass, totally innocuous and is implanted by a single-use, sterilized syringe."... Baja Beach Club owner Conrad Chase wanted something unique to identify his VIP patrons. Other clubs had special jewelry or key chains, but he was looking for something special. After brainstorming, he came up with the idea to implant his VIP members with VeriChip's implantable microchip... "We have a special zone at Baja beach Club where only VIPs are allowed, which has various exclusive services for these members.
We are the first discotheque in the world to offer the VIP VeriChip. Using an integrated (imbedded) microchip, our VIPS can identify themselves and pay for their food and drinks without the need for any kind of document (ID). " "The objective of this technology is to bring an ID system to a global level that will destroy the need to carry ID documents and credit cards. The veriChip that we implant in the Baja will not only be for the Baja, but is also useful for whatever other enterprise that makes use of this technology.
" (emphasis mine) "Useful for whatever other enterprise that makes use of this technology. " When you consider the ramifications of that statement it's truly chilling. Being surreptitiously tracked by the chip under your skin by anyone with the technology to detect RFID tags, targeted advertising as you enter stores or walk down the street (see Minority Report ), as well as a laundry list of other potentially intrusive, privacy-stealing uses that you'd barely be able to control just so you don't have to carry any cash, credit cards or a driver's license?
Not really a worthwhile trade-off if you ask me. Remember - "technology has no loyalty" - It can be used against you as easily as you can use it against someone else.
