There are also some conspiracy theories fans (I met some even here, at Bored Panda, a few days ago) who are sure that 1) the vaccine was produced for killing the old people / 2) the vaccine was produced for reducing world population. My wife is a medic, but she worked for a Big Pharma corporation in the '90's; she told me that all the pharma companies really love old / chronically ill people, because there's where the big money comes from. And imagine a world conspiracy to "reduce the world population": it means to reduce the number of potential buyers of everything, from Microsoft licences, smartphones, Ferrari cars, Armani suits, Rolex watches, Roederer champagne and yachts to Chinese fake plastic stuff. No way!

... and imagine I've met a guy (the saddest part is the fact that he's a medic) who used to tell people that "with the first shot of vaccine they give you the microchip and with the second one, the booster shot, they activate it". I asked him about "they"; since, he refuse to talk to me - and this makes me happy! Asshole!

it is companies that track you, your purchases and your health- it helps them sell you crap which you don't need. Guess what they use? - The phone and your computer you paid for...

"But yeah, Chad, they definitely have a satellite network following you around..." I swear I thought he was talking about the country. Man, I was disappointed.

Even if there was a tracker in the vaccine, I wouldn't even care. What's the government gonna do with that information, call my little sister to tell her I got ice cream without her?

I got my second vaccine earlier today and went to the chippy on the way home.

... as they type their tracking conspiracy theories into an app on their iPhone...

I was talking to someone who insist that they are chipping us like we our pets. So they could track us. I couldn't get her to see that the chips in our pets don't transmit their locations. It would be cool if they did, much easier to find Fluffy. She didn't get that someone scans the chip and reads the info stored on it. And she couldn't explain how they could get each chip programmed properly as the injections are don.

I'm sure there are people on the fringe that believe this. Most people that are refusing the vaccine are normal people that just want to wait and see possible long term effects. Also, young women of child bearing age that want to be sure it doesn't cause birth defects, as no one can answer these questions at this point.

There is no need for these trackers. The government can already pinpoint your location. It blows my mind that people can actually think of things like this.

I love how people think anyone cares enough about their daily foray to walmart to track them. no one cares about what you do.

I'm still shocked that we never had a shortage of tinfoil last year due to the shear amount of morons believing these ludicrous conspiracy theories. If only it was these fools thinned from the herd. No, instead we lose educated, rational people who likely caught it from these idiots!

I will tell everyone where the actual trackers are they are in all of the energy drinks and the vaccine will save you, how about that! Seriously people not only will you save your self and your family you will save people around you. Don't be the people you read about who say they are waiting and miss their opportunity, it almost happened in my family. My family members got covid-19 and survived others did not.

I work for a semi-conductor company. If that shot had a tracker in it you would definitely feel it going in your arm. The needle would be MUCH larger!!

It's actually hit 3 million views plus some, I did a stitch with him on TikTok, @kilo12v8

The timeline on Google Maps tracks everywhere you've been, in detail, for years.

I had this conversation with an Uber driver! I explained my brother was a blue chip designer and had worked in electronic engineering and chips all his life and that it was impossible for a chip to be inserted in the size of the needle used by vaccines (like a hair!). It's impossible. On another note- why would anyone do this or care about what Martin the Uber Driver is doing anyway- don't flatter yourself! They already have access to his phone, smart TV and any other devices in his home already anyway, not to mention the GPS he uses permanently in his job! Despite logic, expertise and common sense he still believes 'Bill Gates' is out to get us. ( could not explain why, other than to say the workd is over populated and he's in on it). The level of stupidity is just horrifying quite frankly. I despair of this country! I think this is the planets' own form of natural selection : letting the stupid people who are too lazy to learn about vaccines and herd immunity to choose to die.

If the technology existed then I would suggest putting it into the elderly that require carers. We recently had an old gent go missing and a tracker would be helpful in finding him

Every connected person in Australia is digitally tracked. Our gvt, along with USA, England, France, and alot of middle eastern countries and European countries track everything. It's all done through your internet and phone provider. Here they must retain ALL of your metadata for two years! Google it if you're unsure, it's important. It's your digital footprint. Thinking beyond myself as a good law abiding citizen, I see that as a huge problem here with us, as humanity now completely and utterly controlled. Our media. And everything we do IS our media whether it's a phone call, or an investigation into a government oppressing thier people. Whistleblowers are now jailed for calling out our gvts bad. The whole trakkers in the vaccination is a TOTAL BILLOWING SMOKESCREEN.

If you believe that they track you on phones and thru internet websites....why not feel like they are tracking you in some other manner?? After all in every religion they say every soul matters,right? The government (American)heard and was raised on that same ideology. They do track what they can believe that. To not believe it is to literally say your life and your kids lives don't matter and not worth tracking because they will never do anything or impact the world. They can't tell the future but they do KNOW that an idea is all it takes to change the world. They just don't know who'll have that idea. They are tracking you....in multiple ways. I
