The US Health Secretary plans a huge campaign to encourage health wearables: CNET knows exactly the kind of devices he's talking about, and why accuracy may be a problem.
What’s funny is that even the craziest end times type of xtians that believe that shit will still carry a phone with them everywhere. I used to have fun with a few of them that I know of pointing out that, hey, they pretty much need it for everything now, what do you think that means, hmmm?
They try that “but but but it’s not the gubbermint doing it! It’s the private sector.” and I ask - who do you think runs GPS satellites? :)
It’s a sliding scale for these people. Used to be these types would point at Social Security numbers and claim that was the “mark of the beast”. Then it was credit cards. Then it was UPCs. Then RFIDs. And now they carry phones with NFC on virtually every single one of them, along with a GPS tracker, LOL.
And now we have systems that can track people by recognizing their gait and their face, as well as other biometrics. There are things reading license plates. So does it even matter what you might carry on you, or not, at least if you live/work in certain cities?
Haha! So true.
