A British scientist says he is the first man in the world to become infected with a computer virus.
Dr Mark Gasson from the University of Reading contaminated a computer chip which was then inserted into his hand.
The device, which enables him to pass through security doors and activate his mobile phone, is a sophisticated version of ID chips used to tag pets.
In trials, Dr Gasson showed that the chip was able to pass on the computer virus to external control systems.
If other implanted chips had then connected to the system they too would have been corrupted, he said.

Who the hell thought this was a good idea? Putting chips in your body just doubles the chance of identity theft just walking down the street. Nice job.

I wouldn't say that science should stop, what should stop is idiots trying to use science for the wrong purposes.
