When 2.3 seconds is just too long to authenticate...:rolleyes:

Looks like a technology prone to all kinds of government abuse.
National ID comes to mind...

Have a feeling that many in this country would object to using such technology due to religious convictions.

Absolutely will make it easier to track you...

Multiple level auth works just fine except for the bereft.

Hmmm...
Near the end of the article there's a bit about a microchip that you swallow called a "digital authentication pill".

Cashless transactions are common.
Many transactions are illegal without verifying identification.

Add to that the potential for "tattoo authentication" technology.

Downright brazen.
No thanks, I'll pass.

We just spent 4 days at Disney World with the G-Kids. Stayed at the Contemporary. Disney is using RFID chips in a bracket they give you when you register.

It is linked to your room & CC, so you can charge your food, trinkets, golf, what ever. You can also use it to reserve a position in line for rides. They use a 6 digit pin for security.

The fact that you don't use cash or cc makes sense. The fact that they are tracking you like a coon dog is a bit unsettling..

I used the loo in Fantasy Land, the speaker in the seat politely suggested I use two(2) sheets rather than my normal one(1).. Seemed worrisome, but reasonable?? :eek:

Maybe the toilet had a better view and was trying to save you some grief?
