I think keyfob hack could steal the ID.

As much as sometimes I forget keys and things and used to hate at my last job having to press something on my phone to be let into my company email, HELL NO if I put some metal chunk in my body for a corporation.

Too many companies already are getting a bit too intrusive. Keyloggers on your personal computers if WFH, monitoring social media, cameras and recorded phone calls everywhere, etc. One place I worked (a hospital) made you carry a GPS locator hooked up to a system that would display exactly what room you were at in real time. Building map and all.

Plus, what do you do if your employer cans you? Have to go under a knife to remove this?

Plus, as you said, if someone really wanted the information, a keyfob hack could probably read this.

"You two were in the locker room for 30 minutes. What were you doing?"

"You two were in the locker room for 30 minutes. What were you doing?"

More like "You m-f... you made me have to get up from being on Facebook by spending more than 6 minutes pooping!" or "The director called from his mansion in his jacuzzi because he had the camera to the floor on his big screen at 4 AM and cussed at me, so now you are being written up. (This actually happened one place!)

One call center, we had to literally get a doctor's excuse to explain to our boss grade school biology that people need to pee more than two times every 8 hours.

(And yes, this is one of the reasons I am studying this stuff and drowning in chamfers, fillets, and hidden lines)

Workplace hook-up stuff never happened in hospitals and nursing homes. Most everyone hated each other too much in that field for that. Plus, those call lights never stop and if someone falls or crashes, that's @$$.

Restaurant industry, yeah. Those stories happened all the time. Used to be a meme before memes existed that if you asked a waitress where she found her husband, they'd say that the husband was once their boss. Either that or a bartender. The 90s and 00s were crazy times. I stayed out of most of it. Parts of me have regrets I didn't take advantage. Other parts of me is thankful I kept to myself. So much drama, evictions, fights, domestic violence, ODs, surprise babies, and harassment claims.

Except administration. They don't have to do a locker room and take off as much as they want. Money and power insulated them from their incompetence and poor decisions.

One owner of one business I worked in New Orleans, the owner used to take off with his CEO (who happened to be a lady 20 years his junior) at lunch and book a room in a ritzy downtown hotel to cheat. Then at 5, heading back to his mansion to see wife and kids. Another used to pay one of my ex-neighbors who was an escort and she gave him a STD which he passed to his wife. But I digress...

But what's really scary though is if you do the Amazon fulfillment center route with these chips using AI and algorithms. Have this to an algorithm that automatically writes up, locks out of computers, and clocks out any person so much as .0001 seconds out of a location or metric. Along with video footage to a nosy owner. Or having it always on in case you just happen to go anywhere where the powers that be think is not in "company image".

Lots of abuse potential.

I was even leery of HR apps companies made me put on my phone. Not that I do anything except play DnD and such.. but some of that HR stuff is good at finding shady areas to skirt things.

But then again, could be me being jaded from decades of dealing with people and a large tin foil hat!
