这个狠人把自己变成了一张行走的信用卡【暴虐朗读】

【头条播报】
Patrick Paumen, a security guard from the Netherlands, causes a stir whenever he pays for something in a shop or restaurant as he simply places his left hand near the contactless card reader, and the payment goes through. He is able to pay using his hand because back in 2019 he had a contactless payment microchip injected under his skin. A microchip was first implanted into a human back in 1998, but it is only during the past decade that the technology has been available commercially. The idea of having such a chip implanted in our body is an appalling one, but a 2021 survey of more than 4,000 people across the UK and the European Union found that 51% would consider it.
