If you swallow this pill, you can forget all the boring internet passwords. It will do the job for you.

In order to spare their customers from memorizing a multitude of passwords, PayPal has developed a tiny pill that contains a tiny microchip - a sort of electronic key. Every time you are in front of computer and you want to purchase something, you don't need to think about the code any more, because PayPal will get a signal from the pill you swallow. You will no longer have to remember even your own name!

Pill with a microchip is an integral part of the company's target to "fully integrate into the human body." According to PayPal software engineer Jonathan Leblanc, passwords present a major safety issue and should be replaced by biometric identification systems that can be ingested, injected or embedded in a person’s body.

Modern passwords will no longer be a combination of the name of your pet or loved one, but biometric signature, which confirms that it is really you and no one else.

It may be your heart beat, your veins or fluctuations in blood sugar levels throughout the day, therefore, information peculiar to you. Swallowed microchip will send data to the computer and you will be able to buy what you want, without having to think about the password.
