It all started with edible underwear

See, if you went to one of "those" stores, and bought "that", the cashier knew how you were spending your time. If you paid by card, the credit company knew where you were shopping, and ergo, (I love that word: ergo...) the NSA knew what you were up to. Perv.

So some smart ass came up with this:

EDIBLE SENSORS! Yep, that thar is a Proteus Ingestible Sensor Module. The little square thing. The clear thing with the spike is a push pin. Embiggened. (And yes, embig is a word, I learned it from Phil....)

 

Now we can eliminate the whole necessity of tracking your purchases and where you went with a handy dandy microchip, officially approved by the FDA!

 

Of course, these sensors are for medicinal purposes only. You know, to track things like blood sugar levels or notify your doctor immediately if your heart rhythm suddenly stops....

 

And also, of course, no one would EVER put one (or more) of these little beauties in that prescription pill that obamacare doctors prescribed for ya, huh? No one can read the doc's handwriting in the first place; who's to notice the squiggle at the bottom that means: Tracking sensor to be included with each renewal!

 

Call me a tin-hat, but would anyone notice one of these dropped in a slurpee? Dental implant free with each filling? And don't forget to get those kids immunized! Its FOR THE CHILDREN!

 

Modern medicine and modern technology. Ain't life grand!
