The headline is link bait.
Covers near field chips in future iPhones to be used as a credit card swipe.
This hardly concerns "iPhone users" in the whole as the headline suggests. First, only next gen purchasers and not ALL iPhone users as the suggestive headline reads and second, if it comes to fruition, then it would only concern that further segmented population of next gen iphone users who actually use the technology.
Even worse, the author doesn't even really make a strong case. I understand and agree with him, but not a string case at all.
