Perhaps, but like credit cards, I can see a system evolving where only those with
implants will be given many privileges. If you operate strictly with cash, it's nearly
impossible now to rent a car, stay in a hotel, or have regular cell phone service.
Also, I can see various insurance companies giving discounts to those people willing to
be tracked in their automobiles. In other words, privacy will be a pricey commodity.
