Gotta love Ashcrof-t
MEXICO CITY, Mexico (AP) -- Borrowing from technology for tracking pets, a U.S. company on Thursday launched Mexican sales of microchips that can be implanted under a person's skin and used to confirm health history and identity.
The microchip, the size of a grain of rice, is implanted in the arm or hip. Hospital officials and security guards use a scanning device to download a serial number, which they then use to access blood type, name and other information on a computer.
The microchips, already available in the United States, have been proposed as a solution to growing terrorism concerns in the US. Attorney General John Ashcrof-t has proposed mandatory implants for all visitors and immigrants from countries on the Department of Homeland Security's new terrorism watch-list.
