I believe this is just another way of big brother to monitor what we are doing and where we are going. I think it is a way to tag us individually. I can see the police or other government agencies setting up reader posts so that when you walk past one it reads the chip and tells them where you are and where you are going. This can be helpful in tracking down thieves or other criminals who are wanted. But then again the criminals will not carry the IDs if they know about this.
