Them chips is a bad idea. If gov ever puts one in me I'll chop it out myself.

Now watch it become the new fad. "Need to find little Jimmy, well if he had the Human Lo-Jack, you would know right where he was. In the hands of a sex offendeing mass rapest murder thats where little Jimmy is now, but you don't know that because you don't have the Human Lo-Jack."

Except that you can't track a person using a sub-dermal chip- not unless they are in the same building as the tracking device, anyway.
Think about it, in order to use satellite tracking or mobile-phone network triangulation or something like that, you'd need the chip to be transmitting at some pretty strong power levels (at least the power of your average mobile phone). Even if having a transmitter like that under your (child's) skin doesn't bother you, what about the power source? Not gonna happen with today's technology. All those dog-tracker chips do is identify the dog *after* it's been found by conventional means. And that's not so important for people as for dogs because on the whole, people are much easier to identify.
Also, even if it were technologically feasible, all it does is give an abductor a compelling reason to cut the abductee open...
