Tech firms will suggest any invasive nonsense that will make them money.
Those present included representatives of Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Palantir, which works closely with the US military
A completely unsurprising list of companies lol

I recommend reading the article, because holy fuck is that whole thing dystopian, but here's who was there:
Those present included representatives of Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Palantir, which works closely with the US military and has contracts with the NHS. IBM and the private prison operator Serco also attended alongside tagging and biometric companies, according to a response to a freedom of information request.
Ah, yes. The very companies that helped install a fascist in the US would be great partners to bring about safety and criminal reform, and they would definitely not inject their fascist ideals into the UK government, eroding and poisoning it over time. Sounds like a brilliant plan! /s

Why not just tattoo a number on their arm?
I'm sure there's no possibility that subdermal trackers would ever be used in shitty ways.

Look, they traded morals for money (if they ever had) long ago. No surprizes here.

Come on, we don't need tracking devices embedding under the skin.
Just use an AirTag. Much cheaper.

They will not use their massive amount of money and resources to create a society that eliminates the conditions that generate criminal behavior (scarcity, no communal support systems, etc.), but they will do this shit.
