Description

In addition to common forms of spatial units such as satellite imagery and street views, emerging automatic identification technologies are exploring the use of microchip implants in order to further track an individual’s personal data, identity, location, and condition in real time. Uberveillance and the Social Implications of Microchip Implants: Emerging Technologies presents case studies, literature reviews, ethnographies, and frameworks supporting the emerging technologies of RFID implants while also highlighting the current and predicted social implications of human-centric technologies. This book is essential for professionals and researchers engaged in the development of these technologies as well as providing insight and support to the inquiries with embedded micro technologies.

He has studied at Sydney University, the Aristotelian University of Thessaloniki, the Sydney College of Divinity, Macquarie University, and at the Australian Catholic University. Presently he is an honorary senior fellow in the School of Information Systems and Technology, Faculty of Informatics at the University of Wollongong, Australia. He is currently a member of the IP Location-Based Services Research Program in the Centre for Business Services Science where he provides expertise on ethical issues and the social implications of technology.

The focus of his current research extends to modern hermeneutics and the Apocalypse of John; the historical antecedents of modern cryptography; the auto-ID trajectory; and more broadly the system dynamics between technology and society.

He has written papers for Quadrant, Prometheus, the IEEE Symposium on Technology and Society, and the Bulletin of Biblical Studies. In 2007, Michael was invited to speak on the uberveillance concept he described, in the ubiquitous computing track at the 29th International Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioners’ in Montreal, Canada. In 2009 “uberveillance” was voted top in the “technology” category in Macquarie Dictionary’s Word of the Year search. Michael is a member of the Australian Research Council (ARC)-funded Research Network for a Secure Australia, a member of the American Academy of Religion, an associate member of the Association Internationale d’ Études Patristiques and a Life Member of the APF (Australian Privacy Foundation).
