Soon, Wisconsin will become the first state in the United States
to ban governments and private businesses from forcing microchip implants on
people. This bill also puts a ban on covert implanting of microchips. Once in
force, this bill will surely be a big win for privacy activists.
Moreover, the bill also proposes
fines of up to $10,000 for violators.
The bill, originally drafted by
Rep. Marlin Schneider, won approval in the State Assembly in March, 2006. This
Tuesday, the bill will be discussed by the state Senate
