PayPal Wants You to Inject Your Username and Eat Your Password

A PayPal executive who works with engineers and developers to find and test new technologies, now says that embeddable, injectable, and ingestible devices are the next wave in identification for mobile payments and other sensitive online interactions.

These devices include brain implants and attachable computers, which “put users in charge of their own security,” he said. Ingestible devices could be powered by stomach acid, which will run their batteries, he added.

I loathe PayPal. I have my reasons.
