        Hadn’t even considered that. I have to unlock my devices to authorize a payment. How does that work with an implant?

            lol. I would hate having to wear a glove all the time.

            Edit: So I spent a little time trying to read about it online and pretty much their claim is that it only works if you get your hand close enough to the terminal. So basically the only thing keeping your payment information safe is distance. That would make me very uncomfortable. Wait until bad actors start embedding readers in places you touch naturally without thinking about it like at the gas station pump etc…
