Keeping 'Abreast' Of Technology

Referring to this story, Sarah Standing writing on the Coffee House, tells us:

"Speaking to a cranial surgeon over the weekend, I was fascinated to discover that most of our replaced, repaired or “surgically-enhanced” body parts are now bar-coded and given serial numbers - just like supermarket goods...........For those who strongly object to the government holding DNA records, the writing is on the wall: there is no escape. Forget the body-snatchers - from now on, all but the uber-healthy amongst us can be simply “swiped”."

With the Government's record of ' inputting and retaining data', it makes one wonder where this will all end.
