I have a few of their devices implanted - NFC, Vivokey, LED, Magnet. The LED and Magnet are for fun. I watch the Vivokey github with interest. The most use I got from the NFC was the last time I travelled to the USA. For some reason I was always stopped, asked questions etc regardless of if it was a holiday trip (to NY) or a work event (I used to work at Automattic). Given the stops I experienced, my experience of the TSA and the fact that while in their jurisdiction I (a UK citizen) effectively had no powers I was fully expecting that my laptop could be opened and inspected. IIRC work advice was to give up any passwords. Nope. I backed up the machine and did a clean install of the OS. On another machine I separated out that which would be essential for work, encrypted it and uploaded it to a domain I had never used before and nested the data many dirs deep. Using my phone I then wrote the full path (without /) and the encryption key to one of the NFC chips. I knew where the slashes would go and I knew the domain, but to anyone else it was just a very long alphanumeric string. Given these implants do not show up on current devices used to scan people, and that implants can be placed almost anywhere on the body they seem an ideal way to get data through checks. Granted the data size is tiny but it is still useful.
