Just as long as the chip doesn’t contain all the data on tiger’s ale and PB&J consumption. Then the chip would have to be the size of an anvil.

The chip itself wouldn’t have to have all that information, just enough to identify you. Then depending on what database they want to check out they can, for example your driving records, or your spending habits, criminal records, school transcripts and so on. Once they have that on you they can track you and everyone as you go about your day or check who is gathering with whom, 1984 will have nothing on this.

There are many downsides old chap. For example, targeted advertising, where you will trigger personalized advertisements in every shop you enter. (Not to mention an existence of reduced human interactions).

Control is the one I would have concerns with.

Imagine all the advertisements for breath mints and body deodorant that’ll pop up when you walk by.
As for tiger, I foresee targeted ads for hangover cures will follow him like a dog follows his master.

If this is a byproduct of the chip, humanity will insist in a loud, unified voice that you get your chip immediately.
At the rate governments do complete testing on drugs, i would wonder if a 30yr test study has been done on the side affects of any thing graphed to the under skin
