    "The British government acknowledged Monday that it would consider using implanted ID chips to track sex offenders, raising the specter of forced chipping.

    The news was first reported on Sunday by the The Observer. The paper reprinted portions of a letter from Hilary Benn, the minister responsible for supervising sex offender programs, to Labour MP Andrew Mackinlay.

    Benn's letter said the British government was interested in the future potential of implants to track offenders' movements by satellite and measure their heart rate and blood pressure "to predict criminal activity."

    Home Office spokesman Matt Brook on Monday confirmed both the existence of the letter as well as its content."


    I don't have a problem with this. If you're not a sex offender you've nothing to worry about.

    Although the heart rate monitor may lead to some interesting situations....
