Amal Graafstra, a 29-year-old entrepreneur who is starting of Web hosting and managed computing products firm called Morpheus Inc. in Bellingham, Wash., gained international exposure earlier this week when he and his girlfriend were interviewed on CNN about their RFID implants. Graafstra, who said he spends much of his time in Vancouver, discussed how he can use the RFID chips in his hands to automatically open his front door, his car or to log onto his computer.
I kinda think this is cool. I mean, my cats all have chips, so technically they are more advanced in the gadget world than I am.
I could see using this instead of a password for my PPC, unlock my car and home, etc. Security could be an issue, and I'd hate to have this done then have someone nuke the chip.
