Drawing the Line on Privacy

Posted by Eric at 8:45 pm. Filed under: Tech

Where does a reasonable person concerned about privacy draw the line in convenience?

Somewhere on the continuum, a line has to be drawn.

Gold Bullion -> Notes Backed by Silver -> Fiat Cash -> Checks -> Credit Cards -> Debit Cards -> EZPass Cards -> Fingerprint Scanners -> Iris Scanners -> Subcutaneous Passive Chip Implants -> Subcutaneous Active Chip Implant.

Think it’s all sci-fi? Nope. Fingerprint scanners as a method of payment are coming to a Walmart, Target or Costco near you. And iris scanners are coming to a school near you. We’re pushing the end of the line here folks.

Where’s your personal line? And Why? Think about it, because at some point soon not deciding will be a de facto decision.
