In California, they banned implanting ID chips to employees of firms

One of the California senators proposed legislation to ban the use of ID-chips by employers . Such radio chips have already appeared on the market, for example, manufactured by VeriChip. They are positioned as a convenient and reliable replacement for standard plastic ID-cards. However, the senators considered that this technology violates privacy.

According to politicians, people with implanted radio chips become vulnerable to attackers who can read other people's private data using unauthorized scanners, identity theft, carry out illegal surveillance and monitoring. The California Parliament has supported this ban, and now a new law has been sent for Schwarzenegger approval.

Interestingly, the current governor of California has repeatedly been the victim of similar ID chips, for example, in the movie “Recall All”. Most likely, there will be no problems with the approval of this law.
