PrePaid Phones 3B

Growing up, my first phone was a prepaid phone. I bought it for myself in sixth grade with my parent’s permission and paid for the minutes all by myself. This taught me responsibility and also made my mom realize that she needed to be able to communicate with me when I was not home or with her. This being said, I am all for prepaid phones.
As far as criminal activity is concerned, this is a good way to stay off the radar. I think that using prepaid phones for crimes can issue, but you really do not hear all that much about it. If the government restricted the selling of these phones or even banned them many citizens would be upset. There are countless amounts of people who use a prepaid phone because of bad credit, contracts, and they simply find it easier. Parents may feel the same way I do that it teaches responsibility, banning it would restrict the teaching of technology responsibility to a child in a technological age. I do not think that they should be banned. They are a very great invention and use for many people around the country.

Location Tracking 3B

Location tracking on animals I think is one of the greatest ideas that they have come up with. Many animals are lost today and flyers and ads really do not do much. The chip is an easy way to locate the animal if they have run off. I for one have them in my dogs. Many rescue leagues now put them in all animals they get in or require you to sign a contract saying you will get one put in when adopting.
Putting it in a human is a completely different story. Humans are very different from animals. Putting a tracking device in a human will take more risks. Risks associated with this could be going under the knife for the first time or to many times and having complications that result. If you have previous existing health problems that can also be factored in to the risks of implanting something new and foreign to your body. If the doctor is new with the chips or places it incorrectly that could also cause long-term effects. Humans can communicate unlike animals. I understand that kidnapping is happening a lot these days but it is not common enough to have to implant a chip. If an elderly person has severe Alzheimer’s where they will walk off then they need to have a care taker at all times. People are looking for jobs these days and that would be a well paying job that would not have life threatening risks. The older you get the harder surgeries become. Implanting a chip into a human for a tracking device is a horrible idea. We can attach it to clothing or phones but not implanting
