Finnish Politician Suggests Tracker Implants for Welfare Recipients - GoFuckYourself.com

A politician from Finland's conservative Finns Party suggested implanting welfare recipients with satellite-tracking chips following news that some recipients continued receiving payments after leaving the country to join ISIL.

A member of Finland's right-wing Finns Party, Pasi Maenranta, has suggested implanting all recipients of government assistance with satellite-tracked chips if they choose to leave the country.

Maenranta made the proposal after Finnish media revealed that some recipients of government assistance continued to receive payments after leaving the country to join ISIL in Syria and Iraq. Maenranta does not believe that the idea raises privacy concerns because of existing tracking technology in services such as Facebook.

Quote:

"The law should be changed: To receive payments from Kela [the Social Insurance Institution], one has to tell exact data about your location using your personal code, read by a satellite. It is also possible to implant electronic chips to all going abroad, who for example receive medical welfare from Kela," Maenranta wrote on his Facebook page.

not a bad idea

It's an interesting comment about privacy. People have been concerned about governments invading their privacy for decades, probably even centuries. Yet here we are running around with miniature computers in our pockets that send out constant messages telling people exactly where we are.

Think about how easy it would be to locate a rich/powerful person's child to kidnap them for ransom. Scary.

I think they should add another feature to it - it sets off an alarm at the entrance to tattoo shops and liquor stores when they walk in...and they're refused service.

First time I heard about that. Not very good idea. The Finns Party is by the way famous for their ideas, the ideas are usually something like this. Or let's say that they have enough certain kind of folks to make ideas like this and these ideas get a lot more media coverage than some more regular ideas.

If I was a terrorist scheming that system I'd just attach the thing to a neighbour's dog before I left the country.
