Surveillance company employees get chipped

Employees at Cincinnati, Ohio-based surveillance firm CityWatcher.com have been implanted with RFID chips. (Previous posts about RFID implants here, here, and here.) According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, one of the two implantees, CEO Sean Darks, "said the implantation was voluntary and allows the employee to pass through security readers at the company's data center without holding up a key chain or ID card." The article also has a bonus scare quote from Katherine Albrecht, the well-known privacy advocate who believes that implantable RFIDs are the Mark of the Beast from the New Testament's Book of Revelation.
