Or they could just tell us there's no cyanide in the chips when they give them to us. Who would stop them? We would never know if they gave people chips with cyanide in them or not.

A cyanide-equipped RFID chip implant? This is worse than anything the Nazi's did!
My God.

I wouldn't say it was that ironic seeing as the end of World War 2 was over 60 years ago. The Germans these days are one of the few nations in Europe to stand up, abliet in the ways limited by Internation Relations, to the hegemony of the U.S in economic and political terms. Look at their oppisition to the invasion of Iraq and the call for tight regulation of the financial market after the collapse.
... a company announced plans to produce autonomous robots equipped with Taser guns, which will be sold to law enforcement agencies in the US. They will be used for crowd control and against civilians, a situation that raised concerns and gave birth to some interesting questions.
If such an armed autonomous robot accidentally kills a man, who will be charged with murder? Its makers, the police, no one?
The US military already uses PackBot, made by iRobot of Massachusetts, to carry lethal weapons and there are already 5,000 robots used by the US Army in Iraq and Afghanistan, up from about 150 in 2004, most of them being used to search caves and buildings for insurgents, detect mines and ferret out roadside and car bombs.
But when it comes to US citizens, things get a little complicated. This move to arm police robots with stun guns has been condemned by weapon researchers and not only from the US.
These new robots are not designed to kill, they will only be equipped with Tasers, an electroshock weapon, an incapacitant used for subduing a person by administering electric shock that may disrupt superficial muscle functions.

And how ironic that the Germans themselves denied this when Hitler would have loved nothing more to get his hands on these for ultimate, total control and subjugation of the populace.
