I think there needs to be a wake up call - if nothing else this creates a disturbing trend towards discrimination, that if you're not some made up ideal of a good worker then you're denied.. what does walking a particular amount of steps have to do with your work (unless of course your job specifies walking around of course..).

I mean it is possible to have some modicum of tech privacy with the right knowhow, as I have tried to do, but it isn't absolute, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain.

A little legislation, as the Europeans have passed, goes a long way.

Yeah, except people so willingly give up data anyway, if anything GDPR has annoyed people in having to click 'I accept you taking all my data and using it how you see fit' when opening a website.

The New Cultural Revolution will probably get rid of things, it was traditional values and inviolability of the church in the past, in the future it's very possibly privacy. As long as it is voluntary, it will continue (as opposed to if an NWO global government starts stopping people on the streets and injects people with miniature machiny capsules).

"A few firms, such as Mindshare, a media agency in Sweden, and Three Square Market, a tech firm in Wisconsin, have already moved onto the next stage: implanting a chip under a worker's skin. Employees gain a way to open canteen doors and pay for meals in the canteen.."
Essentially there's been a move to provide employees with rewards for improving their health. At a more benign end they provide Fitbit and reward for walking certain distances but the above..
..I find it highly unethical to even offer this, to provide additional benefits on the condition you implant a fucking chip under your skin to monitor you. I find it as odd that there isn't outrage among employees about this. The extent to which we'll acquiesce to things for minor convenience..
..and before you judge too harshly remember that a mobile phone is effectively this, for zero real benefit. We provide companies with all sorts of information from exactly where we are to what we're doing.
Shouldn't we be taking back our privacy?
