Default Ten minutes into the future

Chips in animals have proven to work.

Ten minutes into the future when products are chipped.

Small chip implanted in the wrist of a human. Linked to bank accounts and whatnot.

Fill shopping trolley. Push trolley through reader. Swipe wrist of point of sale reader. Transaction complete.

Pulled up for speeding. Police scan wrist - know who you are, where you live, how many points left on license, whether you own guns, etc.

Sounds silly now. Fact I imagined it means it is possible... and actually probably at some point in time... unless we stop it before it is too late.
