Human or Cow, PositiveID Has an Implantable Microchip for You | BNET

Human or Cow, PositiveID Has an Implantable Microchip for You | BNET: "Two months ago, PositiveID (PSID) said it was giving up on its implantable radio-frequency medical records microchip, and conspiracy theorists everywhere breathed a sigh of relief: Previously, the only market PositiveID had found for the chip was a group of Alzheimer’s patients in Florida who may not have consented to being implanted.

Indeed, on Sept. 8, PositiveID sold its Health Link business — the product that linked your implanted RFID chip to your online medical records — to “Health Plexus LLC” for $1 million. CEO Scott Silverman described it as “a non-core asset.” (Oddly, Google cannot find a company named Health Plexus LLC on the web. Maybe it’s Plexus Health, a medical billing company. Or Health Plexus India, which operates clinics. Or HealthPlexus.net, a web site for geriatric physicians.)"
