When was it T.J. Watson got in so much trouble wanting to tattoo everybody
for authentication purposes?

If the final verdict has not yet been reached on whether or not there is
any increased health risk from having a cell-phone transmitter next to
your head for prolonged periods, the idea of having a permanent RF
transmitter internally or attached to my body doesn't sound that appealing.
Sounds like it would also mean someone forceably detained could be
impersonated easily without their need to cooperate (or even be
conscious or alive?). I still see a need for authentication to require
something only known by the individual, not solely based on something
they possess.
