It could be the ultimate in political control — but it won't be patented in Germany.

German media outlets reported last week that a Saudi inventor's application to patent a "killer chip," as the Swiss tabloids put it, had been denied.

The basic model would consist of a tiny GPS transceiver placed in a capsule and inserted under a person's skin, so that authorities could track him easily.

Model B would have an extra function — a dose of cyanide to remotely kill the wearer without muss or fuss if authorities deemed he'd become a public threat.

The inventor said the chip could be used to track terrorists, criminals, fugitives, illegal immigrants, political dissidents, domestic servants and foreigners overstaying their visas.

"The invention will probably be found to violate paragraph two of the German Patent Law — which does not allow inventions that transgress public order or good morals," German Patent and Trademark Office spokeswoman Stephanie Krüger told the English-language German-news Web site The Local.

Or any muslim as well. Just kill those muslims who enter a church/temple - anything that is not a muslim mosque. What a big brother!!
 
Ooh... this is scary.

What if a random signal accidentally activates that switch?

What if an EMP discharged and shorted out the chip causing that person to die?

What if someone who worked at that department went postal and decided to press the red button activating all those chips?

It's a scary thought having something like that inside you... cyanide?

Tracking is better than tracking and killing.
 
this could have very nasty ramifications if they went ahead imposing this sort of control on people
 
Umm I don't know what to say.. I agree with Buffalo, what a big brother!

I agree. I can see a whole host of problems as a result of this.
 
But this came from a Swiss tabloid rag. I doubt any of this is true. Saudis are more concerned with making money from oil than offing a bunch of terrorists with a killer microchip and a dose of cyanide. Besides if this were true, it would be all over the media and human rights watch groups would be all over this like a blood hound.

You have a point there.
 
Heh, that sort of remind me of one Japanese movie where all children in Japan were injected with something that will randomly kill some of them when they reach between 21-25 years old. If nothing happened to those people after they reach age of 25 then they will live on to reach old age. The reason government of Japan did that is for greater good of Japan. O.o

That would be scary if government decided to make something mandatory that everyone is injected with something lethal for whatever reason.
