Big Brother is coming to a school near you, and he’s coming quick. Here’s a story from Texas about students in San Antonio who are being required to carry student ID’s that have embedded microchips to constantly track their location. Touted as a way to control truancy, they are issued to every student in the school regardless of their attendance record. Students who don’t want to carry the ID are being denied the opportunity to participate in activities like school elections. Here are several links to the story:
