Damn Scary Precedent

Quote:"We see chip technology as the next evolution in payment systems, much like micro markets have steadily replaced vending machines," Westby said in the release. "As a leader in micro market technology, it is important that 32M continues leading the way with advancements such as chip implants."

I had to google "micro markets." It sounds like it's mostly a marketing move. Unknown company in virtually unknown industry needs to generate a buzz, so they do something weird.

It's like the betting company that bought Virgin Mary Toast for stupid amounts of money. They got a nice market advertising campaign out of it.

That said, any employee who lets his company put a chip into him is an idiot.
