I am just wondering out load here, and lookign for ideas and comments. I read that the New York Police Department wants GPS trackers in every prescription bottle.
Two sides for this discussion. (1) Does anybody have any idea who is goign to pay for this? How much is a prescription going to go up, because it has a GPS tracker in it? How easy is it goign to be to defeat? Can I just pour the pills into another bottle and then destroy the tracking bottle with a hammer? Is this goign to do any good? Does it make sense to anyone? (2) If they can pull it off, can I use it in my rocket to help me track i? Can we get GPS tracking down to $10 or $15 with the NYPD's help? Maybe I can get GPS for all of my rockets? Will these trackers be on deposit and I have to bring them back when the prescription is empty? What if a black market forms for these things and it creates a new problem. What happens when there are 10,000,000 GPS trackers let loose in the north east and they are all transmitting at once? GEE, a new thought, what is the battery life?
Actually, they really only want to put trackers into fake prescriptions, hoping they will be taken along with real prescriptions. The idea is to find a way to stop prescription thefts and they hope they can track the fake bottles to find the thieves. Good luck. If the thieves have any brains, they just might check their goods to see if they are authentic, especially with this going main stream media now. I know, that was a GREAT BIG IF.
